Dont feel bad, I get about the same driving city and highway. I have replaced my spark plugs, replaced air filter, and everything and still shitty. Basically check everything, make sure you have a clean air filter, new plugs, fresh oil, the works.

ok cool, thats what im planning on doing... this sux, im also gonne try the whole ecu reset thing....

ECM/PCM idle relearn procedure:
-Make sure all electrical items are turned off
-Start engine. Hold engine speed at 3000RPM until radiator fan goes on.
-Let engine idle for about 5 minutes with throttle fully closed and all electrical items turned off.
*NOTE: If radiator fan comes on during this step, the time it is operating must not be included in the 5 minutes

Lowest I have gotten is probably around 28 and the highest around 32. Thats all city driving too, no highway. So I guess I must just be one of the lucky ones or something. Oh and I drive a 03 lx coupe manual and shift around 3000 with the occasional high rev thrown in every once in a while.

damn that is bad, I would take it in to the dealer if I were you, you might have some serious problem, maybe a clogged fuel line or something. Or alot of carbon buildup.

About 48 (and higher) in stop and go traffic -- over 50 on the highway.

And over 600 miles on 13 gallons.
