There you go, man! There's no problem at all, just the real life situation that you don't know everything. Hidden damage plagued U-505 for almost a year between the time it was bombed by a single plane to when the boat was captured. The boat was never the same and they couldn't fix it or figure out just what was wrong.
So the game is annoying. Real life is annoying too. Wow, this must a really good simulation! And so it is. Please do not yell so.
There is a tool, Damage Analyser II

This thing will ferret out all your hidden damage and tell you what it is. You have to save the game, start up Damage Analyser, which is a separate program, not a mod, and tell it to look at your save game file. That will solve your "problem" and give you superhuman ability to know EVERYTHING that is wrong with your sub. Now, if you could only use something like that on women...
"What's wrong, honey, you look upset."
"NOTHING!"
"OK, please stand quietly while I run this harmless program..."
