An integration in Home Assistant would be pretty simple as carnet already did the heavy lifting. Would be a nice start for somebody who wants to get into the platform/component development of Home Assistant. But according to this issue it could be that carnet needs to be updated first.
Or if a VW owner provide me the credentials for her/his account on a temporary base I could do the base integration. It’s seems read-only thus it would be limited to platforms which are observing (sensors and tracking) anyways.
I just saw a Java implementation of Car-net, and the author claims he is using the old API and that it still works. I will give the Python sollution a try and report back here.
Hello
I’m building an implementation that targets the calls made by the browser. No open API’exists and by now this is the only way. Can be a bit shaky if VW changes anything on the web but I got some calls working. The most important one is Charging information" since my car is a GTE.
Don’t know if this is working for the American market though.

I also have a GTE and charging data is very interesting. As well is trip/km data as I am leasing and want to make sure i dont drive more than my contract allows me to. Otherwise Iit will be expensive…
Any progress? Would love this for my GTE as well.
If you manage to get anything working I’d be happy to test it out, I’ve got a Passat GTE in the UK.
Hi,
Just want to say that i have started to build a plugin for this, https://github.com/robinostlund/homeassistant-volkswagen-carnet
But it is still in developing state but you can test it already.

Thanks for your work! I’ll give this a try later this week with my GTE.
I’ve integrated the component in Home Assistant and connected with my VW Golf GTE. I had one issue which I’ve solved by a workaround described in https://github.com/robinostlund/homeassistant-volkswagen-carnet/issues/2
I’ve also integrated this component into my Hassbian 0.60.1 installation. Other than having to change “se” to “nl” since I don’t live in Sweden but in the Netherlands, it seems to work great!
Interestingly, one of the things on my to-do list is to have a play with Carloop and see if I can get details from my old Ford’s OBD port. It should be possible, which means any car could be added to Home Assistant.

How is it going? I have used the component for a couple og weeks now, and it seems to be stable.
I am not happy about infrequent value updates, but I think it is CarNet that is not updating/getting updates from my GTE. The app shows the same. I can wake up in the morning and charge percent will still show 70%, the same as before I went to sleep.
I see the same as @Marius. But I also think it is Car-net that isnt dooing well. When I check the android app it is also not updating if the hA plugin isnt.
But getting support for this kind of problems whith carnet isnt posible. I have tried lots of time, and no answer or just answer that maybe the car is out of data coverage…
I just started using HA and have installed the Car-net function. Getting the following error:
I am able to start the charging of the car, but most sensors are shwing up unavailable. As I said, I am new to this. Running Hassbian on RPi3 with the latest image.
Thank you for any input
Could the problem be corrupt SD card?
Corruted card… now working like a charm!
