    isnt this what later model commodores do? when I had a VY, if you held the unlock button down, it would unlock all 4, but if you only pressed it quickly it would just do the drivers door?

    Standard isn't it? You press it once to unlock, the drivers door pops, you press it a second time and the rest pop. My VS does it. I'd rather it, I rarely need the other 3 open.

    It's not a problem it's a design feature to improve security. It doesn't allow someone to get into your car via the rear or front passenger doors after you have unlocked your car. For example, women sometimes open the driver's door and put their handbag on the front passenger seat. Only takes a few seconds and it's gone.
