I can only tell you a few things, first being that the on board trip computer closely matches the actual MPG measured by filling up and dividing miles by gallons used. Second,A low 30 MPG figure ought to be achieved on a level highway at typical legal speeds on cruise, or by just holding a steady foot. Only you can judge how hard you typically accelerate in your other driving,and a heavy foot that is producing boost often will drop the mileage significantly. My 2002 Aero auto gives me low 30's highway and about 27 overall. I leave it in sport mode exclusively. When you clear the accumulated mileage on the SID and then put your foot in it, it is easy to see single digit numbers. Other than having a service tech make sure your engine is completely healthy, not much else I can suggest.
