I got exactly the same codes
P1801 - Immobilizer Transponder Error
P1805 - Immobilizer EEPROM Error
..and engine won`t start at all. These are complicated systems so does anyone know how to fix or in my case - can immobilizer be removed permanently from system?? (i don`t know how to cheat the ECU)

I recently had the same problems.. Exact same codes. The mechanic showed me because i complained my car would randomly not start.
He left me with two solutions after deleting the codes;
If car fails to start remove key and insert the other way round (flip the key)
9/10 the above fixes the problem.
If it continues to fail after about 5 attempts... well over here it costs €1,500 for a new ECU....
