I got exactly the same thing with my GT30 gel but it was visible when watching the TV, it was a dark shadowy line on the same side and affected all sources, never did find out what it was or what was causing it but the TV was replaced by Richer Sounds.
It doesn't look like IR or burn but can you see it during dark scenes on any of your sources? Seems very strange but if you can't see it during normal viewing I would be inclined to not worry about it mate.
Oldboy said:Hmmm your Pioneer 5090 screen sounds exactly the same as I got with my GT30 mate, that can't be a coincidence.
If it's intermittent in nature I would stick with it and monitor it closely but if it affects everyday viewing then it's time to act...if it ain't broke don't fix it mate
Keep me updated though.

Will do, it seems to have faded now!

It has completely faded again! No sign of it.I started to look more to see of I could see it on normal TV but couldn't see it on any source.

that is good news, glad to hear its all ok
Oldboy said:Good news gel
Hope it doesn't come back but as said earlier probably just a panel ageing issue so fingers crossed it's issue free from here on mate.

is that for repair under the John Lewis warranty. I'm guessing yours is over 1 year old?

It doesn't sound good that it seems intermittent in nature gel, does it impact on the picture when the TV is on or is it still limited to when it's switched off? Sorry to hear the bad news though and just hope John Lewis are able to offer a suitable solution asap, keep us posted with what the engineer has to say on Thursday
gel said:Will do mate. At times I can and others can't, it also depends on the lighting and source and picture. But it is a black mark straight down the screen. I am guessing on 3D it is going to be a lot worse too? Surely it will light up? I get my 3D glasses soon, so I will look. But I don't like the look of this, it is not on the other side.
