Add the following to your .emacs file:
;; Detect endianness of UTF-16 containing a Byte Order Mark U+FEFF
(add-to-list 'auto-coding-regexp-alist '("^\xFF\xFE" . utf-16-le) t)
(add-to-list 'auto-coding-regexp-alist '("^\xFE\xFF" . utf-16-be) t)
;; Add missing support functions
(defun utf-16-le-pre-write-conversion (start end) nil)
(defun utf-16-be-pre-write-conversion (start end) nil)
