2005 ES330 bad city fuel consumption

On my Solara I thought the master cylinder was sticking causing my poor fuel economy. I changed it to a new Dorman unit, and serviced all the brakes (heck even swapped back to stock calipers and then back again chasing the problem). The brakes don't stick anymore, but I'm still left with 14L/100km.
If I recall on my ES, the highway fuel economy was much, much better, somewhere around 8.5-9L/100km for a straight highway run. So I guess driving a 6 cylinder car really takes its toll in the city or in stop and go traffic.
Here's my video on how to service the brakes on an ES here:
