New to air suspension

Recently got air suspension put on and basically I'll air down to ride height from all up and the front bags will overshoot the target PSI (wheel well dropping all the way to the tires), then shoot up super quick and just as quick shoot down again then finally to the actual preset height. The problem is that I can't air down from up because while driving because the car bottoms out resulting in tires rubbing the wheel well. Does anyone have knowledge if this normal or is it an electrical issue or faulty manifold? Currently running airlift performance manifold/universal bag and strut.

Happens when I go from ride height to air out sometimes, but never from all up to ride height.. Recalibrating fixes it for me. Also make sure you are releasing the moisture regularly.

Yea thats the odd part is it does it anytime I air down all up>ride height>preset low. Airing up is normal, manually doing it is normal it's just doing it manually during driving is very distracting 🤯
Been draining it weekly and will try to see if recalibrating does anything

UPDATE: Recalibrating fixed it, thanks topend!
