When pressing the remote button on my freelander all doors close properly when i press the button again, only the passenger door wont open, i have to open it from the inside

I'm guessing this is a safety feature so you don't get car jacked. Try pressing the button for longer. Might even be a child lock feature, check child locks.

Check the relays in the fuse box. It appears that the solenoids for locking the doors are working correctly. However it appears that the lock solenoid is not working properly.

turn key twice when opening, ie turn right. once drivers door will unlock, turn twice passengers doors will unlock, and locking is turn anti clock wise once will lock all doors, turn twice will set door dead locks.dead locks will stop openand lock internal button working and handle from opening door. the same actions can be applied to the remote one press drivers door, two press passenger doors, press and hold unlock button for 5 seconds and rear window will open.
