francesco,

the obvious conclusion of your description is that
you have clashes due to periodicity, i.e. using too
small a simulation cell for your system. please keep
in mind that coase grained "atoms" are much larger
than regular ones and that you thus need a more
"safety" distance when computing the size of a cell.

cheers,
