Reputable shops for computer box of Toyota RAV 4 2002

Hi. I just bought a 2nd hand 2002 RAV 4 automatic, and it still runs very well, but it's such a gas guzzler! I'm getting less than 5 km/L!!! I'm actually not sure what's wrong yet with it, since it is running very well as I've said, but I think it's not supposed to be this gas-thirsty. I've been noticing that it always stays above 2200 RPM or so while cruising. Not sure if that's also a factor since it only goes to 4th gear. So I'm thinking if there's something wrong with the computer box, and if it can be tweaked. I also tried connecting a Bluetooth OBD-II adapter, but it doesn't get recognized, so I really don't have an idea what's wrong.

Anyway, does anyone here have an idea of what might be wrong, and if not, can someone recommend a reputable shop that can look into its electronics?

I live in Cainta, by the way, so it would be good if someone can recommend a shop in Rizal, Pasig, or Mandaluyong.

Thanks! Cheers!

Hi. Sa umaga mejo mataas nga ang idling maybe because malamig pa sya pero pag umaandar na, parang mababa naman. Pero I think mejo mataas ng onti sa 800. Baka slightly above 1000 pag idle. Nag neu-neutral ako pag traffic tas mejo bumababa un idle nya. Yah I read nga na 7 km/l un consumption nya. Pero considering na 13 years old na un car, I'm sure me effect un. Pero I think mga 6 man lang, not 5 km/l. Buti mura gas ngayon, pero nakakaasar pa rin un bagsak ng fuel gauge everytime you move. Nde pa naman nagoover heat *knock on wood*.

Do you have a shop of your own somewhere near Cainta? Baka pwede ako dumaan minsan. By the way, un handbrake indicator is constantly lit sa instrument panel kahit nakababa naman un handbrake. Sabi nila sa computer box daw un? Not sure about it, and if it also affects consumption somewhat.
