Your tenacity has been rewarded!
Woo hoo!
This makes me want to pull my immobilizer and have its through hole solder connections checked.
Could you see any evidence of solder cracking or did it just look like a sub-standard solder job?

Also, having gone thru all you did, do you have any advice for other gremlin chasers what order you might start going thru the many items.

I couldn't see real obvious evidence of solder cracking.
It was because I had this problem also with the controller for the cabriolet roof, which I also resoldered, that I thought this could be the same.
Any advice? First try to find out what exactly is going on. This was difficult in this case because everything seemed to work. I had to take out the special tools to find this out, the oscilloscope that is.
Had my first real test drive today, felt really good. Had a huge smile the whole drive.
