Do you know what the cap does and if it is OK to drive without the cap until I grab one from the dealer?

I believe there is a valve similar to the schrader valve on you tires that holds the freon in. The cap is just to keep it clean I believe.
Ok that makes sense, I did notice it looked similar to a tire valve inside. So it should be under $500.00 from the dealer I hope (idhitit)
Thanks for the info.
That controls your boost, you can dial-in your boost by sticking a Q-Tip into it and gently rotating the Q-Tip counter-clockwise. (2thumbs)

You can also do the same thing in your tire valves, no rotation necessary. Improves the tractions of ANY tires. Give it a shot.
I can't see the humor in that post. Some people are actually THAT stupid to believe what you said. As for me, I came in here asking for help on the subject and you come in here giving that kind of nonsense? As for the tire mod, thats real, so give it a go, all the cool kids are doing it.
Anyways, if anyone else has any info on this cap or the valve feel free to give input. Thanks

I'd get a new one to put on there sooner than never. You don't want the valve to seize up due to the elements. May even be able to get that someplace other than the dealer
This is a service valve for the air conditioning. The cap is there to keep it clean. There is absolutely no problem driving the car. Just replace it when you can. For piece of mind, you could put some good quality painter's tape (the blue or green stuff) over it to keep gunk out but it really shouldn't be necessary. Do not use duct tape or black electrician's tape because they get gooey when they get hot.

I know with my previous Subaru, that cap went missing and I just went to the dealer and they put a new one on there for free. Granted, it wasn't the exact same one that came from the factory, but it was perfectly fine. So if you have a nice dealer and you have good rapport with them, see if they'll put a new one on there for you for free. It's Christmas afterall
