What's wrong with central locking on our car?

Hi we just bought a Skoda Octavia (3 yrs old, brought it home yesterday) and it was working perfectly in showroom, salesman came across and pressed the button to open the car so we could have a look - all fine, all doors unlocked. Now however when we press the unlock button on the fob it sounds like all doors are unlocking but only the driver's door actually unlocks. The rest stay locked, the only way to open them is to press a button inside the car (you know there is a button to lock all doors from inside car and a button then to unlock all doors from inside car). The fob seems to be working fine apart from this, it locks, opens the boot etc. We've tried both fobs and the same thing happens (just driver's door unlocks) we've looked in the handbook but can't seem to find the information we need. Probably something simple but any sensible advice, especially from other skoda octavia owners would be much appreciated. Thanks|||on most of them that's all it will unlock anyway ,its a safety feature,read the owners manual on it,mine only un-locks the drivers door,once the door is opened then you hit the un-lock button and it un-locks everything else,it might be meant to be that way but the manual should tell,good luck with it.|||good deal,enjoy it.

|||get in the car, push the little sticking up bit near the window on the drivers door down, ( not the fob not the locking button), this will lock the car,all doors,





now use the central locking button on the fob, or inside the car to unlock,





get out and now just use the fob, you have reset the central locking on the car.





kind regards x kitti x|||I`d take the car back to the showroom you bought it from and let them sort it|||fault could be it thinks its opened all doors start there|||Hold the button down a little longer and the other doors will unlock
