Really? If you adjust it to the top or bottom, it stays the same height?

The problem is... that you spent 150 quid on some coilovers.... and expected them to be good!  :wink:

Have you screwed the adjuster up higher as thats the next obvious step?! If you screwed it down and it went higher, took it out and it went lower....
