I am still new to these cars, but I just recently changed the oil pressure sensor you are referring to. I didn't remove the coolant pipe but kind of wish I had. I did remove the oil cooler lines from the cooler and would definitely recommend doing that. I also bought a sensor removal socket (1/16" I think) at Northern Tool for about 3 bucks. Not professional grade but it workd fine in this case.

As an aside, my sensor was leaking a little but I think the major source of the leak was that fact that one of the oil filter adapter bolts had worked loose. I have read of others having the same issue.

I admire the person that can do this job in an hour!
