I have a 53 plate CDX 2.2 DTI that has developed a strange problem, car starts well even after one week of standing, ticks over well, no hunting, but has now developed a miss fire when applying steering to left, I can cause this by weaving slightly from left to right

On left hand sweeps it feels like it is missing until I straighten up .
At the moment tank is half full , has fuel filter changes every 5000 when oil and filter changed . Is run using Millers diesel additive and 200ml of two stroke to every 20 L diesel ,which I did for 60000 miles in Vectra C 2.2 DTI with no problems.
Will get a fuel filter change tomorrow.
Any advice or suggestions will be welcome

Is it when turning the wheel left, regardless of moving or not and starting position? ie s it the same if it's the last 1/4 turn of lock or if it's from full right lock?

What happens if you apply revs whilst turning the wheel left? Is it easier? Any strange noises?

Could be the power steering pump on its way out and increasing the demand on the engine $:-\$
