    I drive 2014 volvo 670 with two air gauge, the F one is fine at about 110psi, but the R one is way up pass 180 psi.

    I have drained the air tanks, what could that be ?

    Buy a gauge that will screw into drain on tank thats showing hi press. just to see if its the gauge on dash thats bad 1st, then replace the air gov. if its cheaper that buying a screw in gauge, having a extra air press reg. in your tool box is a good idea with a few fuel filters if you dont have them yet buy fuel filters before cold sets in for the 1st time!

    I wonder if they are electric gauges. Maybe a trip to the dealer would be in order to replace the gauge.
