M8 and stripes but not the Banding problem!

My M8 has performed as expected until recently when I started getting these pin stripe lines that cross a short way across some percentage of my shots. I can't say what exactly is the cause, though I've tried lots of trouble shooting and nothing seems to fix the problem.

 

I tried:

1. Remounting the lens.

2. Mounting another lens.

3. Another Leica M8 supported SD card (San Disc 2GB).

4. Reformat all SD cards.

5. Use air bulb to blow air into the SD card slot.

6. Use air bulb to blow air into sensor compartment.

7. Reflash the firmware v.1.201.

 

Here's a shot of a wall that has four horizontal stripes going partially across the frame.

Unfortunately the poor camera is packed up and ready to ship to Leica New Jersey tomorrow morning.

 

I'm bummed, I hope they fix it for free.
