    My 2007 Camry does this sometimes. Never heard of any Scion's doing this. My tC has always had a long start cycle caused by the Engine Immobilizer.

    I suspect that your problem may be either the MAF (temp sensor) or the idle control circuit. Have you modded the intake or exhaust? Best to take it back to the Dealership.
