A remap might help, as might using premium diesel fuel, or a diesel fuel additive. It helps my TDi in the lower revs, but it's also a far older engine.

It's great on a clear road, but trying to work through traffic, including HGVs doing only 56 mph meant I spent most of my time in 5th and let the business cover the extra fuel cost.
