Default 41-46
I generally run around 43-44
235/40/18 is UltraSport Rim/Tire, it says 41psi for light load, and 46psi for full car load

May be different b/c my 3.0 is heavier than your 1.8t? Maybe?

Default A word of caution: I noticed that when I was running 42 it's only the centre of the tread that's...
contacting the road (at least when going straight), so that it's probably over-inflated for extended highway travel. This is especially true for the rear tires, and I already have the more back-end heavy Avant.
