The U-boat certainly should not sink at 1-2 knots with NYGM.

Perhaps the U-boat is damaged?

However, it is very likely that this is another example of the famous 'Crash-dive blues' (How can one say that in German?)

If you change the diving depth after starting a crash-dive, for example to 150 metres, *before* the U-boat has levelled out at its crash-dive depth, then you will find it difficult to control the depth at 1-2 knots. This is a bug in the stock game, but it is worse with NYGM because of the diving model.

The solution is to rise slowly to a depth above the crash-dive depth, and then crash-dive again, allowing the U-boat to settle at its crash-dive depth before trying to go deeper. The crash-dive depth for most (but not all) of the U-boats in NYGM is 80 metres.
