In the VW owners manual it says something like for best audio use bluetooth. It's to do with the way the data is transferred at least with iPhones it's the case, using a cable compresses it more and reduces the quality but bluetooth compresses it less.

It is a golf though so I wouldn't be expecting too much in terms of sound.
