Could the solonoids be at fault with regards to the doors not unlocking?

Are there different solonoids for locking and unlocking?

Its all one module and each door has its own module

With regards to only unlocking the drivers door, it does that by default.  Two quick successive presses unlocks the rest of the car

+1, completely forgot about that. I use my key rather than a fob and have to unlike twice to unlock the whole car.

But my cousin has a golf aswell and all his doors open when he puts the key in and unlocks it once

If you use the key then yes it opens the entire car.  Using the fob remotely its designed to open just the drivers door unless its been reprogrammed to open the entire car
