Sony SXRD green blob

Is anyone here familiar with the "green blob" problem on Sony SXRD
rear projection TV's. Any insight to the eventual solution?

TIA

Yup I do, in fact just went for sony traning on new models today. and
that green blob your talking about is a crack in one of the lcd displays
, you will need a new light engine. no two ways about it

 

Is the replacement light engine likely to fail in the same way or has
Sony fixed the problem?

TIA

Sony's been having lots and lots of these type problem on all their LCD rear
projector models.
Word has it they're installing UV filtering in the new replacement engines,
but it will probably be a while before those show up as repair parts.

To answer your question, yes, at some point the problem or some similar
problem, will probably recur.
