Hi, I start the car but passengers cannot then open doors unless I press stop button (not moved the car). Is there a way around this as I am sure lots of drivers pull up to pick someone up. I have checked the manual but no mention.

Also, many thanks to all who have answered previous questions, still under 300 miles, think I have autism or adhd 😂
 
As soon as you engage 'Drive', the doors and boot lock automatically.
If you haven't yet engaged 'Drive', it's possible that the default unlocking behaviour in the car's settings is to unlock the driver's door only on first unlock (rather than all doors). Easily changed through the infotainment system.
