At least the getRemoteHeating returns the temperature:
{ "errorCode":"0", "timerCount":3, "remoteAuxiliaryHeating":{ "status":{ "active":true, "operationMode":"HEATING", "outdoorTemp":"2,5 °C", "remainingTime":22 }

I would also like to get fuel, remaining range, mileage, location etc. but I cannot see those anywhere. It would be nice to have this kind of status report which would contain all relevant information available via the API.

Thanks, that sounds like exactly the thing - but I do not see getRemoteHeating anywhere in the current code?

The range etc. data is available with the /-/emanager/get-emanager url, it is just not conveniently exposed by the current code. Will try to get around to submitting a PR.

Sorry, forgot to mention that getRemoteHeating is on the development branch only at the moment: https://github.com/reneboer/python-carnet-client/blob/development/we_connect_client.py#L519

@odelma, that link seems to not work any more. Any pointers for finding the code now? Thanks.

I guess it is merged to the master now?

edit: maybe you've noticed but this repo is not maintained anymore, so no future updates expected here. This might be developed in future: https://github.com/bgewehr/volkswagen-carnet-client

Much obliged, again.

I am doing something wrong, since all I get with getRemoteAccessHeating is /-/rah/get-status {"errorCode":"2","timerCount":3}.

I am unsure about the whole ”remote access” thing - does it require that I have something specific enabled that was not previously required?

Hmm, I think you need to verify that eveyrhing works first in the VW WeConnect web portal https://www.portal.volkswagen-we.com/. Then just use the script as intended, .e.g.
we_connect_client.py -u 'username' -p 'password' -s 'spin' -c getRemoteHeating
