Help guys, car is due MOT re-test tomorrow.

The car came off the inspection lift last week, as i left the MOT centre I noticed the car was idling at 2krpm. It is now steadily idling at this rate, I checked for a sticking ICV and butterflap on the throttle body, both are immaculate. Its weird, the car was idling perfect before hand. I had problems before, as the afm and throttle cable was both messed with. However I got it set before the MOT test, and got the emissions done. Everything 100%. Anyone have any ideas ?.. Friends suggested it might have skipped timing, however its running perfectly.
