That doesn't sound right at all, I wonder if the front geometry needs reseting? I recall driving a 409 that had been refurbished by the owner, who was particularly pleased with the money he saved rebuilding the front suspension himself. It had more understeer than a piano.

That said I would imagine that a severe adverse camber would cause understeer, particularly on soft settings.

I have accidentally run lower pressures before and the softer settings do improve comfort a little but don't help cornering
