It depends on what you're making. You can try plain yogurt. That's the closest thing I can think of. Hope that this helps.
If you are looking for a dairy-free alternative to sour cream, try Tofutti "Better than Sour Cream" or Tofutti "Sour Supreme". Note: The second one contains hydrogenated oils a.k.a. trans fats. Trader Joe's also has their own dairy free version of sour cream.
Try mashed up tofu (put it in a blender) or Vegenaise (a non-dairy mayonnaise-type substitute that is so good, I eat it plain).
Tofutti Sour Supreme is a vegan alternative that uses soured soymilk. Straining plain yogurt in cheese cloth make it thick like sour cream, add some chives and/or scallions, and a little garlic for a great dip.

Buttermilk Sour Cream
Makes about 1 3/4 cups
When you heat buttermilk until it curdles and then drain off the watery whey, the end result is this satisfying and rich alternative to sour cream.
2 cups low-fat Organic Valley buttermilk
4 roasted garlic cloves
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1. In a double boiler, combine the buttermilk and garlic. Cook over simmering water, without stirring, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the milk solids curdle in the center of the pan and leave a ring of watery liquid around the rim.
2. Strain and discard the watery liquid. Transfer the curdled milk to a blender or food processor. Puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Use now or cover and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Use as you would sour cream. If necessary for a recipe, reheat gently without boiling.
Plain yogourt...
In France, they use cream and a few drops of white wine vinegar.
Depending on the seasonings of your recipe, you could use plain yogurt so you don't overpower the other seasonings. You could also use plain mayo or even ranch dressing. Ranch or mayo are good if you want to add some zing!
Good Luck!
