I had to change mine a while back and it wasn't a 5 minute job for me lol. I also used a long extension bar and a crows foot. The nipple that the switch screws onto is a like a tyre valve and closes when you remove the switch so no gas lost. Mine was charged when I changed mine and still working...
I did. Turns out it was a heat shield that had been moved during the cam belt change that need to be moved slight as it was rubbing on the exhaust once it was hot

The initial thought that the crank end float may have been the cause of the problem was wrong, this was checked and found to be within spec. Further investigation showed a massive amount of tilt/deflection in the dual mass fly...

Just got the car booked in at my local indie for a service, cam belt + water pump, brake fluid change and a new clutch master cylinder.
Not gonna be a cheap Christmas :(
