BMW ConnectedDrive component

Update fixed the login issue, but now my BMW and Mini are both reporting odometer and range in km instead of mi as they used to. I’m in North American so should be miles.

Hi,
if it helps the below is the way I fixed the km / mi issue. I live in UK.

template:
  - sensor:
        - name: "Mathilda Mileage Miles"
          unit_of_measurement: "mi"
          state: > 
            {% set km= states('sensor.118i_mileage') | int(0) %}
            {% if (km == 'unavailable') %} 0 {% endif %}
            {% set mile= 1.60934 %}
            {{ (km / mile) | round(1)  }}

Hi,

I have this error in HA log:

‘PARTIALLY_LOCKED’ is not a valid ‘LockState’

Any update on fixing the manual entity updates (every 10 mins)? It’s getting quite annoying as it still goes unavailable several times a day

Since yesterdays update of the component I’m missing the attribute “check_control_messages” in the entity “i3s_120_check_control_messages”. Worked for me before. Car and VIN are still available:

Would be interested in this, too. In my country if you want to charge with full 11KW you need to have different kind of three phase power socket on the wall and unfortunately there is no smart plugs for that kind of socket. This is why there is no way to make any automation for this purpose currently. The only way is to manually configure it via the BMW app.

Hi there - where do I put this code? In my Config.yaml? Thanks

Hey guys. Just stumbled across this component which works fine.

Whats the best way to get a nice looking card going? Seems like there isnt much info on that topic

Anyone seeing loads of update failures today?
I have it updating every 15 mins and still it goes to unavailable with this:

Error fetching bmw_connected_drive-<EMAIL> data: Error communicating with BMW API: Client error '403 Quota Exceeded' for url 'https://cocoapi.bmwgroup.com/eadrax-vcs/v2/vehicles/<VIN>/state

Quite annoying if they decreased the amount of requests allowed.

Edit: not just me it seems: bmw_connected_drive - 403 Quota Exceeded · Issue #78792 · home-assistant/core · GitHub

had the same troubles yesterday, today morning OK and now, once again no connection.

Seems to behave today, so far

Did u change something in your config?

I deactivated auto updates didnt do anything with the integration or myBMW App but ive got the 403 error again.

No didn’t do anything but I had auto updates disabled already and updating every 15 mins via an automation

May I ask how you can have it updating every 15min?
I can not find where to set these 15min.

I believe they changed the interval of the integration in 2022.09.6, launched today. I might be wrong, however have worked for me. Be aware that it will only reset at 00.00 UTC, hence you might have to wait some time after the upgrade for it to work.

Hello,

Just got a new bmw and want to replicate some functionality I had before with volvo.

I cant seem to find a way to tell when engine goes on/off. Is that not available with this integration?

Anyone can recommend how to substitute for that?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi, great intergration but I’m missing to start the parking heater. This would bee the perfect HA automation to start the heater with the integration. The BMW app could do that, is there a change to do that with HA too?

Thansk, Steffen
