For a car weighing about 5436 pounds, 11mpg is quite impressive.

Kindly oblige us a picture of the engine bay and the front interior please.

Asides from the way he drives, his car may not be running optimally.

A thorough diagnostic scan on his car may point out faults that needs to be looked into.

For an Es330? Is ur check engine light on? I drive an 01 Acura Mdx randomly and i get 14.2 mpg in city driving (with the Ac on and regular fuel), despite the manufacturer requiring premium fuel. Ur Es330 is meant to at least get above 19mpg in the City.
