When the AC is turned on, a number of things happen: the cooling fan is engaged, the idle speed is increased to account for the additional load of the compressor, and the AC clutch is engaged. My guess is that what you are hearing is the AC Clutch rattling due to a worn input shaft bearing. As soon as it is engaged, the noise goes away. It is possible that something else is going on here, but I would be tempted to focus on the AC compressor as the SOUND portion of your problem. When you say "...she makes noise like loss of power or stalling, I am not sure what you mean. Is it a noise, or is it actually losing power. With no MIL (check engine) light on and if the noise goes away after servicing the compressor, I would say you are fixed up. Good Luck.

From Lusty Kid:
I know the economy is bad, but change all of the plugs. Check your PCV Valve hose, 150 rottens them out allowing air to be sucked in, thus all kinds of codes.
Depending on mileage. Dismount the EGR valve and clean passages. If you are really good dismount the throtle position sensor body and clean out passages with Choke Cleaner., dismount where the EGR valves connects to the engine, clean out passages. Also check the hose thats behind this mounting to ensure is not clogged. If clogged clean it out. If not replace it. Is about 1.5 ft. long, connects to the PCV Valve Hose.
When is the last time you change your harness. Can't remember??? Replace it. Good Luck

35 says idle switch motor, 41 alternator field circuit open or shorted.
For all the time it takes, I would remove idle air control motor, on side of throttle body, clean it all up, and spray good in port you remove it from , with throttle body cleaner, and retry it, and see if it makes any difference.Inspect & Spray connections with contact cleaner too.

Next time this happens, pull over and unscrew the gas cap. The vent may be clogged.
Otherwise, your catalytic converter may be failing. It can also clog and hinder engine exhaust.
Good luck !

The P1350 code on your car is described as Ignition Control (IC) System Fault Conditions. Have you checked your stock coils with a voltmeter? You know I've seen "aftermarket" parts fail pretty quickly. In many cases, OEM replacement parts have the quality you need to have a reliable car. Not all the time, but in some cases. In addition to posting here you might also want to post your question at http://www.obd-codes.com Good luck!

The cooling system may need to be serviced which is one of the things that is never done. The orange antifreeze has a life of 5 years and 150,000 miles and if it has never been flushed out, there may some crystal formation causing a restricted flow of antifreeze through the system. Try flushing out the cooling system with Preston radiator flush, use the dry power flush rather then the one from the bottle. Follow the instructions and replace the antifreeze with a 50/50 (water/antifreeze) mix, if you not sure how to mix it. You can buy them premixed 50/50. Too much water will boil over and too much antifreeze will gel up causing overheating. If you like you can replace the thermostat too, but that's not that easy on the 3.4 liter engines. If you go to Auto Zone you can pick up the antifreeze, radiator flush, and thermostat with the step by step instructions needed to get the job done. Keep me posted, be glad to answer any other questions you may have and good luck friend.
