Hello mickscrill.Does the immobilizer light flash when the nome start occurs.Do you no if the holding pressure of the fuel system is ok.Do you have more than one key,if so try to establish if the fault is to one key or all.Suspect the fault codes may relate to key signal to small.The data cable from the slip ring (ignition barrel) becomes dislodged/squashed around the steering column housing and moving the key around in the barrel(15 times)can jolt the connection back in.Also the immobiliser on this model isnt part of the dash it seperate unit and i have replaced a good few for this and also the transponders in the key become defective over the years.
