Hyundai i10 - how should the central locking work?
I have just bought a 2011 Hyundai i10 Comfort 1.2 and I need a bit of advice regarding the central locking. My key opens all the locks (except boot), but does not lock all the locks when I try locking it. It isn't a remote fob type of key. There are no batteries and it just looks like a normal key. Is it normal for the key to unlock all the doors but not lock them (except driver's)? As I have never had a car like this I don't know how the central locking is supposed to work.

The Hyundai i10 Comfort of this age should have remote central locking. It sounds like you've been sold a car with just the spare non-remote key and not the original keyfob. All the doors should lock when you lock the driver's door, so there may be an issue here - we'd recommend speaking to a dealer or Hyundai specialist as they can advise regarding getting a new key or fixing the locking.
