I cannot address the suitability of your VW for towing, but as to the tow bar height issue, my Blue Ox tow bar manual states:
"
CAUTION:It is important that the attachment points at the center of the attachment tabs and the center of the coach's hitch receiver should be of equal distance. If a deviation must occur, then it is recommended that the hitch receiver be no more than 3” above or below the attachment tabs of the baseplate."
I had to add a drop hitch receiver (
