Description of the problem	Very excessive fast idle speed in my 2005 sequoia. I too owned a previous sequoia (2000) model and there is no comparison. It can take anywhere from 4 or more minutes to warm up the engine before there is any noticeable change in its idle. In fact, i can idle out of my subdivision without hitting the accelerator. This should not be. You can also hear an increase in its idle if you turn on the vehicles heater. The engine even revs more. You no longer can get the this vehicle, start it, and let it warm up 2 or 3 minutes and put it in drive or reverse. Getting in a cold vehicle after a packer's game, you must sit there and wait.... And wait.... And wait while all of the other parked (and cold) vehicles have left the parking lot. If you do not let the vehicle warm up a good 5 mins. You also have problems getting the vehicle to shift gears. You can be giving it gas and it is not going no where. It gives you the feeling like your transmission is slipping and/or not engaging. I have taken the vehicle back to the dealership and they tell me that this is 'normal'. I have been driving for many a year and i know that this is not normal. They also tell me that they cannot adjust its idle because of emission requirements. I did not have one problem with my previous sequoia !, and if i was shopping around for another suv now and having this major problem in my 2005, i'd be shopping elsewhere. *nm
