The vehicle listed above is a GT 2010. My car starts for a second and shuts down and shows error “button for driver assistance system is defective” and also it doesn’t scan the OBD2.

The “button for driver assistance system is defective” is telling us the start button is not allowing power to the various electrical systems. I would check all fuses first with this guide:

Here is how to change out the start button and the fuse panel locations as well. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.

The start button is different (manual) and also the fuse box.
Can you please check and respond for Golf GT 1.4 TSI 2010 model?

Okay, that makes sense, we only have info for US cars but I can still help. Here is what they show for the manual ignition switch which is what I would change first and then clear the codes. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
