Steering calibration

Steering calibration
Just come back from a local shop where a set of PSS9 has been installed on my car !
Coming back home i hadn't the opportunity to check difference before/after but i have experienced something strange ... on a very long corner, fast but not accelerating (constant speed, perfect road conditions), suddenly (at, i'd say, not more than 40 degrees of steering on the left) the PSM has become to engage without any reasons in a very dangerous way !
Is this a sympton of a needed steering re-calibration after a coilover install ?
I remember i read something about this ... just want to know if i remember well !

I don't know if the function is available but Durametric 6.0.3.1 got a function called steering calibration. I did not tried it yet. Be aware it is a beta software. The other day I did a full brake bleeding and the new Durametric got a function to start the brake booster pump and it did not work.....

I believe you will need to have the dealer or a shop with PIWIS or the older PST2{I think that is correct} unit to recalibrate the steering sensor. If you didn't have this problem before the suspension work, then you probably need to have it done now. It only takes 5 min. I had my entire suspension redone, re calibrated the steering sensor and never had any problems with PSM.

Thank you guys for the inputs ... Larry, at the end, i have gone to my dealer and with the PIWIS got my steering sensor recalibrated ... no more issues with the PSM !
Very easy and cheap solution ... even if the dealer tried to stop my car for a 1-2 days check ... as usual !!!
Little OT ... he has checked all the recorded faults in the ECU and his response was: "No problem, everything ok, just some overboosting ... at 1.4 bar !!!!"
And me telling him ... hmmmm, i don't understand, the car is stock ... LOL !!!
