X-Type Central Locking problems.

Hello,i recently bought a Jaguar x-type 2.1 petrol 2003 and i am verry happy with it but i have some problems with the central locking.
The car won't unlock using key fob ,i changed the battery on the keyfob but that didn't help.
When i unlock it with the key,it unlocks only the drivers door,the other 3 stay locked,when i have passangers i have to unlock it from the insite manually for each passanger,however when i lock the car,it locks all 4 doors.
Also if i don't put the key in the ignition the alarm goes off,i have to rush everytime to put the key in.
Also the back right door has the plastic a little loose and when i close the window on that door,it makes a friction sound .
Would that have something to do with my problem ?
I will be taking the car to service but i have trust issues now,so i am asking here for some possible advice.
Thank you .

Can't help with the window problem that is unlikely to be related to the other problems
The default set-up is for one press of the unlock button to unlock the driver's door and a further press to unlock the other doors. Similarly, a second turn of the key will unlock the other doors. The need to insert the key in the ignition after unlocking with the key is standard to raise the alarm following entry with a non programmed key. (Or even a programmed key!!)
It sounds as though your key fob needs re-programming to the car. All you need should be here

Replacing the battery was the first thing i did when i saw it wasn't working.
I put a fresh one in.
Is there a way i can test the key fob to see if its sending any signal ?
Also ,i forgot to mention ,i am in UK so the jag has the wheel on the right side,does that make any differance? Some car models are different depending on the continent/country
I put a fresh one in.
