It appears Dave reached the same conclusion I did in my page -- the "cap" or what Volvo calls a "casing" is there to keep water from entering where grease belongs.

Check out Jim J. Morris's Zen of Volvo 240 Wiper Linkage to which I have a link at the end. Jim describes a minimally invasive approach to the wiper drives. Obviously my photos would not have been so easy through the glove box and through the instrument cluster openings.
