G’day mate, I’d start with the basics.

You’ve already changed the air filter & cleaned the sensors. Next check the spark plugs & change them if they’re worn out. Check your cold tyre pressures & if low, fill them up with air to the recommended psi first thing in the morning. 

If you have an OBD2 reader, scan for any codes & check live data to see if your engine is running rich. 

Also make sure your transmission is shifting correctly & is in the highest gear when you’re cruising on the highway. 

All the best!
