MI Prob bad bearing

Spray a lil wd40 on the bearing n clutch and see if stalls a lil slower. It wont fix it but itll help you determine the cause. Ive got a used working compressor, but shipping would be a ton.

that sounds like an engine problem not an ac proble possibly a bad iac or something. Does the ac work when the car isn't idling?

I know on the s4 and s5 cars if the ac pulls the car to stall at idle or idles funny with the ac on its usually the throttle position sensor, but im not sure about 1st gens, and dont think motor problem till last, ac puts alot of drag on a motor so start with sensors and vacum lines and stuff of that nature
