This is a deficiency claim NOT diminished value. There is no real remedy here, other than hiring a lawyer for a lawsuit, if the inusrance carrier won't assess he vehicle at a higher value. Unfortunately, if you over finance a car, i.e. its "upside down", the insurance carrier does not pay for poor credit or financing decisions, but rather the actual cash value of the vehicle (ACV).
