VW Group Connect v5.2.4

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

What changed / Was hat sich geändert

Added

• Škoda began shipping the plug fields on the charging endpoint, which had no reader for them; they are read now — #1990 #2021 #1995 #1998 +7

Fixed

• "All closures secured" said unknown where off was the honest answer, because the proof that a car implements the field was thrown away between deliveries (#1950, @Adcad1970) — #1950 #1739 #465 · thanks @Adcad1970
• The Charging Port sensor died on 5.2.3 for Škoda cars with an EU-Data-Act export, and the guard that was supposed to prevent it covered two paths out of six (#2030, @Kaputnixx) — #2030 #1739 · thanks @Kaputnixx
• PRIVACY.md still told you the GPS-precision fix was unreleased, a day after it shipped — and a test now holds that sentence so it cannot happen again — #1378 #923

Security

• The coordinate guard was written, tested and invoked by nothing; it is a required check now — #1378

📖 The full account of all 5 changes is in the changelog: CHANGELOG.md → v5.2.4

Each line above is one paragraph there: what broke, how it was measured, and what was deliberately left alone. Written out in full on purpose — for anyone debugging the same thing, and so a summary of this release can be made from the reasoning rather than from the headline.
