Default High fuel consumption

Hi,
I have an Auto i6 Au Fairmont with 313,xxx km on it.
Fuel usage seems to be quite high at ~19Lt per 100km on the trip computer, around town (Very light traffic)
My first guess is o2 sensors, but 19lt seems excessive for just oxygen sensors?
Is there any diagnostic that i could run that would show a coder for fouled o2 sensors, or anything else of use?
What else would i be advised to check?

Also does the trip computer only meter fuel used, or would it show fuel lost (leaking tank etc..) as fuel consumed?

Thanks
