Where abouts did you get this sorted out at? I think I have the same sort of issue, except mine seems to use 13-14l/100 at any speed on the highway.
Been back to the dealer a few times and they have no idea, and keep telling me not to worry as I have a long warranty!
I mentioned what you have found and he turned his nose up at it and said it would have come up when he was doing his diagnostics on the car.

Mine burns off about the 2 to 3 hundred kms.
Mine runs around 13/14lts a 100km since new.
Have complained about the auto drop back, it still does it. Only had 1300kms on it at the time.
Nothing has changed now has about 5700 on speedo.
Late 08/16 build, got it late October 2016.
Even on trips to Adelaide 500kms away it still gives the same with fuel and auto drop back.
On scan gauge auto trans temp and torque temp runs up to 103/116 degree's on both cruise and foot driving.
Outside temp has been from 26 to 40 degree days or evenings, with and without trailer connected, in overdrive.
Trailer on locked into 5th both do run cooler but still to high for my liking.
What are your thoughts on this if ok to ask, before I go back to Toyota dealer.
Thanks
Charlie
