The car's brain may only think there is something wrong due to your altered spring rates. Much like HFC's generating check engine lights. Of course, I am not certain how it will affect the life of your shocks, however. How does the car ride/drive? Does it feel weird or handle badly?

Anyway....first place to start is to see if you get the message in all EDC modes or not.

That said, I would never simply change out the springs on an EDC system. And keep in mind, in general, the more complex, the more integrated, and the more electronics that are involved, the more you run into the risk of problems.
-Comfort and normal mode is fine, massage appears on the sport mode!
-The ride is stiffer now.

I think when you change the springs the only difference would be compressing the shocks by approximately an inch more than the stock rate! and this should not throw an error massage i beleive since rebound factor is still there!!!
