I'm guessing your car is the 170 bhp diesel....
If so ,fuel filters wont help with the chugging or holding back in low gears.its more likely the ASV that is sticking or the dpf is blocking up..this engine wasn't designed to run with a dpf..its a bad setup!!!!
Gut the dpf,bypass egr and remap out regenerations and you'll have no issues
