IIRC this is the correct mode of operation!

The logic is that the driver side-loading door is designed for delivery drivers who need to lock the cab (to prevent sneak thefts from cab via the N/S passenger door) while (un)loading from the side.

ok something weird i've noticed, if i move the sliding door handle maybe a couple of mm and then lock the doors it does lock on the 1st turn of the key.
