Thanks for the tip! My shop didn't mention any resetting (and I communicate a lot of detail with them, I think they would have told me if they'd done it) and the install instructions from Bilstein don't mention that either. I should have guessed there might be adaptation in the system. I'll try resetting it this weekend.

one question though - wouldn't the same adaptation eventually undo itself with the new shocks? i.e., would it re-adapt to the stiffer shock. This would be analagous to the engine control adaptations, which will re-adapt themselves after fixing an issue without usually requiring the adaptions to be reset in ISTA.
