Stalls when turning steering wheel to lock?
Sometimes, the car stalls when the wheel is turned to full lock, like when I'm turning into a parking space.
Ideas as as to why?

First thought is a dirty idle air control valve. How is the power steering fluid level? Try and avoid turning the wheel completely to lock it puts a much greater load on the power steering pump.

I'm thinking low idle. or low power at idle.
some common causes
- bad / worn spark plugs
- low fuel pressure
- air filter clogged
- vaccum leak
- timing out / incorrectly installed timing belt (off say off one tooth in either direction).
- worn out engine accessory (bad bearings in alternator, worn out p/s pump, or AC pump).
