Reading it from an app
CarPropertyManager mgr = (CarPropertyManager)
car.getCarManager(Car.PROPERTY_SERVICE);
boolean value =
mgr.getBooleanProperty(VehiclePropertyIds.ENGINE_IDLE_AUTO_STOP_ENABLED, 0);This property can be read and written, though an OEM may implement it as read-only. It fires a callback whenever the value changes.
