Are you talking about the "auto fit rotamer" function? I am not using that. I tend to select rotamers from the list but I rarely pic the auto one (it tends to place my side chains inside the neighbouring main chain densities most of the time).

Are you using the automatic rotamer correction?  This performs poorly
at low resolution - 2.9A is about the point where it really breaks
