It could still be 2017. Kevin Feige was kinda confronted with the "so it's 4 years after Guardians 2" and went "err, well, we don't tend to confirm that kind of stuff but the Guardians films, as you can see with 1988 + 26 years, are set in 2014, so, yeah". He didn't directly say "it is 4 years later". Apparently recently, when someone asked James Gunn about when the Adolescent Groot post-credits scene took place, and he said just before Infinity War, the guy then replied "so 4 years later..." and he balked, unwilling to say yes, like it could be 3-4. There's a chance they refer to Civil War as last year, and a good chance (although this is very excusable if it is 2018 considering academic years) that Spider-Man 2, set immediately after Avengers 4, says Homecoming was last year. We can be pretty certain though in saying that Infinity War is set any time from late 2017 to 2018.
