I also have this same problem so i adjusted the spring to the lightest setting and has made no difference to the way it opens. It still opens way too aggressively. On the other side there is a spring with a damper through the middle. Maybe the damper on mine is shot? I will replace it and see if it makes a difference.

Bringing up a pretty old thread, but I am suffering from the same issue and seems like replacing this shock is the only way. Can you please tell me where you would get it for $100? Cheapest I found is at http://www.ecstuning...141490/ES92131/ and its over $145 including shipping.
Thanks,
