Very low MPG on my 2007 Lexus Es350
Hello all,
I had a 2003 ES300 with 121k miles that was totaled, that car used to give me 12-15mpg city driving. I live in New York so most of the driving is city. I thought this car had maybe an Air/fuel sensor problem, or something of that nature so I replaced lots of parts until it was totaled and I couldn't test further.
I then purchased a 2007 Es350 Ultra Luxury Package with 100k miles. This car gives me a similar MPG, this one gives me 13-16mpg in my driving. I don't drive like a maniac, I put 91 or 93 gas. Also, I replaced the air filter, used some of these restore mpg bottles and everything is the same. The car runs smooth, I replaced the alternator, air compressor, rear struts, water pump and 2 new tires, other than that nothing else has been problematic. I don't know what more info is needed to come to a conclusion. So, feel free to ask.
What can you guys suggest? is anyone with a similar experience?

What’s the mileage right now?
i would scan it with the Techtream, just to see how the air trim is doing.
Also, cleaning the MAF with CRC maf cleaner would be a great thing.
