I'm not a mechanic and even those I've talked to can't find anything wrong;
My navara D40 double cab is for some reason drinking enough diesel to start it's own AA club. When idling it goes from 6-7.5L / hour. 1st and 2nd gear is 60L / 100km. When on the motorway it's smooth at 22L / 100km. I've had some mechanics plug in a reader and check my cylinders and looking for faulty codes but nothing. Also occasionally I loose alot of power on 3rd and 4th gear. But that's not often. And it's sorted after I swap to a different gear. Any ideas? It should be about a 3rd of it's current consumption.
 
How are you heading the fuel consumption?
If it is genuinely using that much fuel, the smoke trail will be visible from space...
 
Are you recording each tank fill and ODO reading, & then calculating the actual consumption?

The live dash number is just a gimmick. Approximately close to actual consumption....maybe.
