That pretty low, I get 700k per 70Lt tank, 10Lt/100k, don't live in the city. You can pull the codes, under the right side kick panel, under the fuse box. The main problems that cause high consumption are O2 sensors, and the temp sensor. After 200,000k it would be prudent to fit a full set of sensors, that age with time.
1. the two O2 sensors.
2, the Temp sensor.
3. the magnetic pick-ups on the crank and cam sensors.

These bits will detorate with age, so you might as well do them now, as when they go one after another.

All the best,
Harvey.
