Hello guys i have posted my key and it was lost during shipment , i manage to break the door lock and break the ignition lock to turn wheel but i am not able to start a van, and need a way to start a van without a key fob.

Not possible I'm afraid. If it's a Mk7 it will need a new key/fob and be coded in via IDS. There is a reluctor ring around the ignition lock which senses the correctly coded key and the PCM/BCM then allows the engine to start.
