I forgot the assumption G simply connected as noted by @nfdc23.
Feb 19, 2016 at 3:26 comment added nfdc23 The assertion is false for most classical split absolutely simple $G$ of adjoint type (step 3 fails), say realized inside ${\rm{GL}}(\mathfrak{g})$ (as a closed subgroup over $\mathbf{Z}$) via the adjoint representation. Indeed, your definition of the notation $G(\mathbf{F}_v)$ then coincides with the group of $\mathbf{F}_v$-points, and if $f:\widetilde{G} \rightarrow G$ is the simply connected central cover then $G(\mathbf{F}_v)$ has commutator subgroup the image of $\widetilde{G}(\mathbf{F}_v)$ away from a few cases. If $G$ is simply connected what you want to prove is true.
