The repair shop CYA / BS is the first thing that occurred to me. It seems to me you'd have to beat that camera around pretty good for a loose screw to do much damage to the AA filter surface... the screw is too light, and the distances too small for much force. It would have had to be jammed in there somehow, hence the questions about your shutter.

Best guess is your repair shop damaged it and is trying to get you to buy that it was your fault.

^^^^This was my first thought.

This has opened up an area I'd never really considered or looked into! I've never cleaned the sensor, and really had no idea how to go about it (or even see it to take a picture of it). I've now read what seemed to be a very thorough explanation/tutorial on how to clean the sensor (CopperHill (external link)), looks like I really ought to try this and see what difference it might make.
