VAG Connect v2.19.1

Home Assistant integration for Audi · VW · Škoda · SEAT · CUPRA · Porsche · VW US/CA.

What's new in this release / Was ist neu in diesem Release

Fixed

  • PHEV charging power was reading 10× too high (#764). On plug-in hybrids the portal feed reports charge power in tenths of a kW, but it was being taken as whole kW — so a 1.9 kW trickle showed as 19 kW, above what the car can even draw. It's now scaled correctly. The same real-world charging export also surfaced three smaller portal glitches, all fixed too: the charging state no longer flips to a junk value mid-charge, an odd placeholder charge-mode is ignored instead of shown, and a sentinel "0" odometer at trip start no longer masquerades as a real reading.
  • Cabin and outside temperature from the portal feed were decoded wrong. Both were read as deci-Kelvin, but the data dictionary actually encodes them with a 0.1 °C step and a −46 °C offset — so a normal 22 °C cabin could come out around −205 °C. Both now use the correct formula (including the nested one-time-export spelling of the outside reading), with the Fahrenheit sub-range handled too.
  • Several Audi / VW commands were hitting the wrong backend path and silently failing (#752). Parking-heater start, climate start, charge-mode and vehicle wake were each using a mistyped route or a mis-named field, so the backend answered with a 404 that led nowhere. The routes and payloads now match what the official app actually sends (parking-heater, charge-mode on its own route, the climate temperature / at-unlock keys, wake), and the VIN is upper-cased before every command because some backend nodes are case-sensitive. Note: on a car where a given function simply isn't provisioned for remote control, the backend will still legitimately refuse it.
  • Honk & flash ignored the requested duration. The duration field was mis-named, so "flash the lights" always ran the backend's default length instead of the value sent. Fixed, grounded in the official app's own wire format.
  • Your car's model now shows even when the long name is missing (#764). When the backend returns no full model name, the device now falls back to the short model name from the vehicle list before dropping to a plain brand label.
  • CUPRA / SEAT read channel: app-version header refreshed (#779). Bumped to the current version so requests keep matching what the backend expects.
  • The "no data yet" help text now leads with the consent step (#755). If the portal feed hasn't produced anything, the guidance starts with enabling the continuous-data consent in your VW/Audi account — the step people most often miss — before the rest.

Changed

  • Commands now wait to confirm they actually ran (#666). Instead of firing a command and assuming success, the integration briefly polls the backend until the request reaches a final state, so a genuine failure surfaces as an error instead of looking like it silently did nothing. It adds a little latency but is far more honest about what happened.

Thanks

Huge thanks to @Motii08, whose real charging export pinned down the 10× power bug and three other portal glitches (#764); @heyensh-sys for patiently testing the Audi commands and sending the exact error logs that isolated the route bugs (#752); @dazj1990 (#709) and @rmalbrecht (#779) for the read-channel reports; @Mech0z for flagging the confusing "no data" guidance (#755); and @torstentosh, whose command errors drove the completion-confirmation work (#666). The full roll of reporters, requesters and testers is in CONTRIBUTORS.md — thank you. 🙏
