Hi virginreco,

Can you believe I only discovered that these dark lines were a common issue this week. I also only found out this week about the "overheating" recall on this model TV and a few others, I am a Which Mag member and discovered a forum there about the recall and also the dark shadows issue.

I am waiting for a service engineer to call and arrange a visit to check out the overheating problem, I will use the opportunity to see what Sony will do about the dark shadows and show the engineer this forum.

Sony have to honour this as a product failure at some point. Good idea about starting up a list. This fault must be Europe or even Worldwide. Can we check that out in some way, maybe Sony are recognising the issue in other countries??.

Shadows don't look so dark on my TV. Bought the TV in Feb 2008. Shadows started to appear early 2011, thought the screen was dusty to start with.

This totally spoils the viewing pleasure which was fantastic until this appeared. Will keep viewing this forum for further details and will advise outcome of service engineer visit.
