You need to plug in a diagnostic to retrieve the fault code

I drove satria, had used adjustable with spring rate 8k front and 6 k rear. Too hard to drive and very uncomfortable even on malaysia highway.

Change to zerone adjustable, soft hard hi low, chose 6k spring rate for front and 4k for rear, set damper to soft. Quite comfortable.

Spring rate means how hard ur spring is, the higher the index theharder it is.
Harder spring stiffened ur car, better at cornering, given that the surface not bumpy, if bumpy, it will jerk ur car off the road surface, reducing contact hence make cornering terrible.

Just my 2 cent.
