I am assuming its no longer under waranty. before I sent mine in for repair, I over heated it with a towel, and it seemed to fix it. however I still sent it in th MS anyway...why not... SO to answer you question, thats what I would do if it was not covered under waranty.

      I had this problem happened to me twice with two different 360 consoles. After doing a bit of searching around, it came to the conclusion that by performing the regular x-clamp fix process, it would normally fix the problem. Please, keep in mind that the x-clamp fix is not a permanent fix, so use at your own discretion.
