Agreed.

With coils that adjust height from the bottom, using preload to adjust ride height is a common symptom. "But I'm not that low!" Because preload non-existent and the strut body is barely in the mount at all.

It's either a ride height issue, or a setup issue I bet. (Wrong end of the coilover is being played with...)
