SOURCE: line thru screen

The LCD Panel must be replaced to fix both problems. The cost in doing this would exceed the value of the set. I recommend not putting the money into it.

SOURCE: WHEN I FIRST TURN ON TV ALL I GET IS VERTICAL

this may be a problem on the 5 volt line in the set, there is a constant 5 volts running through it even when it is off....so long as its plugged in.
There may be condensors that are open on the 5 volt line.. after they warm up they start to function more proper. but being that they are leaky..they are no longer doing thier job of keeping voltage steady until they warm up.

i do not condone this but if you were to open it up , im willing to bet you have a series of swollen or blown condensors that are not doing thier job on the pwb (power supply board) if thats the case its a 30 minute fix for a technician. Id like to discuss this with you further , i do have a couple questions that may help me diagnose this.

SOURCE: When we turn on our tv in the morning the left

Call Sony my friend. I have the same exact issue with the same model. They already have a recall for the 46"XBR4. Let Sony know that us 52" owners are having the same issue. I'm essentially calling them everyday until they fix it.

Tv turn on no pic or sound

Try unplugging it for about half an hour, plug back in, if it still does not work, you will have to open it up and do some troubleshooting.
Please see my basic troubleshooting guide here:

After tv is on for approx 20-30 mins it starts to make a loud high pitched squeal or whine. once turned off for approx 10-15 mins can turn it back on for another 20-30 mins before squeal will return....

Sounds like a problem I had with a Polaroid t.v. Take the cover off the back and look for capactors that are buldging on the top. The top should be slightly concave. If they are convex at all, you can buy new one at Radio Shack and replace them for under $5.00

Screen flickers upon power up

Looks like your picture tube is dying, or there is a bust capacitor(s) inside...I'd recommend taking it to a service shop to get it repaired.
