I've been having issues with my front right coilover (Tein Flex Z).

When I got the new wheels mounted, I noticed that the coil had lowered itself (was 6 threads, then got maxed). So naturally I raised it back up to 6 threads and tightened the bottom collar and thought it'd be ok.

Then today I found out it was slowly lowering itself again. I did some research and found that I may not have tightened the pre-load enough so I did that, and torqued the other two collars based on the manual.

Here is my question:
I got it aligned twice since the install: once before the wheels were mounted, then once after (got a freebie cause the steering wheel was off). The problem is that I do not know if by the time I went for the 2nd alignment the coilover had loosened itself or not.

Because I have no knowledge of this, I cannot "set it back to the height it was during the alignment" to make it ok as per my tech's words.

6 threads seem to be about half an inch, so how much will that have affected the toe?

Not sure if it's placebo, but the ride feels a little off to me. However, I'm not 100% certain for obvious reasons.
