On the last event where the NRMA cleared the fault codes to get me going, the bloke told me that this issue could be relay related as a similar problem existed with older Ford Rangers and Transits where the battery voltage drops sharply on starting. I dunno but the LR dealer has changed the PCM and Immobilizer relays. They asked me to monitor it and see if this resolves the issue.

I will do so and if it does not resolve the problem I will follow your advice and use the Nanocom to disable the passive immobilizer. Makes you wonder why this was not done prior to them fitting and charging me for a new immobilizer at nearly $4k

Will update as things evolve. Thanks for you advice

had the same issue once in a while, just had to unplug the relay under the drive wheel and it would start again

Having same problem - which relay under the steering wheel is the one to pull out please?
