Re: Idle Problem
Ummmm.....I'll stab at it
Maybe...
Idle relearn
Stuck IAC
Clogged IAC (if it is the type with a screen in it)
May be normal, too. The AC makes a significant load on the engine. It is noticeable as it cycles on and off. The engine RPMs should stay relatively steady as the AC cycles on and off though.
Is the check engine light on? What codes?

Re: Idle Problem
A system that is seriously overcharged may not cool, and could make the engine bog way down when the comp kicks on. Still, I can't tell what is going on from here.
If the AC doesn't work, then leave it turned off. Or get it fixed.
