The AC being on also puts the engine on fast-idle.
The NZE121 has hydraulic power steering, not electric like the NZE 141. This means that it has a steering pump and it takes power from the engine. Turning the steering to extreme left or right takes the most power.
If your engines' fast-idle is not working on startup, whether triggered by the cold-start or AC, then it will buck, misbehave or stall when you turn the steering, simply because the power-steering pump is taking power from a slow-idling engine.
Get your mechanic to check that.

Belts seems okay and the electrician did not see any problems so far. As previously stated the problem seems to be intermittent so I will have to monitor.ramishrrr wrote:When your car is started, especially on mornings, the engine is put on a fast-idle mode to warm up fast and to permit drive-off.

My local NZE121 has the electric power steering. Some of what you stated, however, does apply to me. I have noticed the issue occurs not too long after starting the car. I recently replaced the fuel pump due to a hard starting issue. Could that have affected the fast-idle on startup? Thanks.
