For 93,000 miles I averaged 420+ miles per tank of Gas. At 93,000 miles I had both front Calipers replaced. I also had the Throttle Body serviced.
I am now getting 360- miles per tank of gas. Prime Toyota of Dedham says it can"t be related to any work they did. There has to be some reason
for a 15% decrease in gas mlles per tank.

scan for codes and check fuelpressure first. then check to seeif calipers are hanging up, this can be from the caliper not sliding well to brake hoses that are not letting fluid back to master. if you can get fluid out of calipers without pressing on brakes then this may be hoses.
