Have you tried upshifting at 3500 rpm or less?

You do know it is a 6 speed and that you can use 6th gear as low as 40 mph right. The only way I can come up with some of the poor gas mileage numbers some people are seeing is that they rarely use 6th gear or enjoy going down the road at 3000+ RPM at all times.

MPG below in my sig, sort of poor for A/T, but I tend to stay in lower gears. Hopefully a tune will help a bit...

Sucks, just refueled yesterday at Shell with 91. Now my Avg MPG reading says less than 15mpg. I've been at 28-30 for the first 2000 miles so far. WTF!?
I also changed my oil filter over the weekend with K&N filter and Eneos 0w-20 5.5 qts. Soooo weird. I'm wondering if my computer need some kind of reset or maybe I got a bad tank of fuel. I'm hoping that I'll still get 270-280 between 10 gallon fill ups. |

I used to get 25mpg before first oil change. Now I'm getting 27mpg 50/50 city/highway. My usual shift point is 3500 the first two gears, 3k onwards, except when uphill or overtaking. Mine is 6AT btw.

An update. I have an 6AT. I drive 80 city and 20 hwy. I hardly ever go to sport mode and drive conservatively. After several tanks of gas and an oil/filter change to Royal Purple 0w20 I've been consistently getting around 25 miles per gallon.
