If I recall on my ES, the highway fuel economy was much, much better, somewhere around 8.5-9L/100km for a straight highway run. So I guess driving a 6 cylinder car really takes its toll in the city or in stop and go traffic.



Here's my video on how to service the brakes on an ES here:

Thanks for sharing your tutorial. I admire how you approach things with your cars. Hopefully, some day I will have my own garage and start exploring car mechanics
