I would get a volt meter on the battery, check voltage before and during running to confir...

Re: lowering springs???????????

Get a dedicated spring kit.

I fitted a set of Spax 35mm lowered springs from Demon Tweeks for £106. Give them or someone a call as not all makes or height options are listed in catalogue or online.

Re: Lowering springs

Think your right on the diesel needs stiffer springs. Best give the seller a call for more info.

Have just fitted Spax springs to mine last week from Demon Tweeks and they are vehicle specific.
