I noticed I don't have a screwed cap on this part in my car. It appears to be some kind of valve.

What's the valve for and do I need to get a cap for it pronto - any idea why mine's missing?

I think it is a aircon pipe for refilling.

Replacements cost £28 from Subaru, I can post you one for £15.

If it's just the cap you need and you can wait a while (4 weeks) then I can post you a spare one I have FOC ?

That sounds even better mate!

What is the valve actually for? it looks like a pressure relief valve, such as the ones on car tyres...

As WR1 Bro rightly states, it's for re-gassing your Aircon.
