    could be the xbox going out on its way to rrod.

    When you took the xbox for repair it probably got a knock on the way.
    This can get an xbox working temporarily (wont last)
    I saw alot of this when I used to do repairs.

    Just use it as normal for now and only worry if it happens again.
    At least you know where you stand then.

    Then again it could have simply been a loose av cable,
    You never really know untill you have the console infront of you

    what kind of cable are you using OP? Unlikely to be the case here but a VGA cable with a bent pin can cause what you describe.
