indeed most seem to agree 26 / 27psi is the best setting.

Yup, 26 psi all round.

Interestingly the manual recommends 22 psi for fronts and 24 psi for rears. IMHO this is too low.

So, when you get the car back from a dealer always check the pressures in case they follow the manual

Ditto. Tried everything from 23-28, and settled on 25-26.
