Check for a vacuum leak, like a hose loose. Spray brake cleaner (not carb cleaner, as it may harm paint) around the intake of the engine and if you get a stumble, or an even higher idle temporarily, you have a leak. It could also be an idle valve stuck open.
I don't know what the code is, but I'll bet that it leads to what I mentioned.

I did that already, no luck. I did manage to find out what the code is just now, www.obdii.com it has something to do with the TPS, but what gets me is that why would it clear out, but still idle too high? Thanks for the quick help

Welp, I guess it fixed itself, I went to start it up today to go to work, and it fired right up like nothing happened. Whew, I guess I got lucky......

I'd check the vacuum line that leads from the oil filler spot to the back on the upper intake plenum...
