I have dust particles underneath the sensor glass, so sensor swabs didn't help me. I will try to get inside and under the glass. Additionally the EVF is overbright after a drop and maybe can be rearranged in the process.

You can spot dust marks yourself best if you set the camera to the "A" mode at f/22 and take a picture of the sky

Start with these two screws. Remember screw sizes and position, there are many different lengths used!

to remove the sensor more easily you can remove the top bar before

Remove the 3 screws to get the sensor cover glass off. Be Careful not to let them fall inside the housing. There are extremely strong magnets!

Hello,
and what about Flange back adjustment? Did you solve it somehow?
Hi, what exactly do you mean? I managed to wipe the sensor clean, but correct reassembly is difficult. I might have missaligned the magnets holding the sensor and now the camera sometimes seems to focus very slow.

How do you remove the top case unit or top bar?
I need to access the SD card slot, as I am afraid something is stuck in the slot. The camera is giving messages “insert the card again”
SD card is known as “delicate” one. Use MicroSD adapter with 2-3 plies of adhesive tape on “title side” over contacts. Plus two 5mm stripes near MicroSD slot. Insert adapter and use two stripes to secure your adapter to battery compartment walls. Never move adapter until you need to replace it. Then only use MicroSD cards with some adhesive tape stripe to pull the card from your new slot. Once properly contacted, adapter will avoid “insert SD card back” message on screen.
