wither48 is an unknown quantity at this point
Unfortunately, I wasn't driving it when it overheated. It was overheating in town because of a coolant leak, and I pressure tested it to confirm that was the only one. It is overheating while I try to bleed the coolant. Gauge isn't showing center, but my scan tool is reading the temps I mentioned. I just did a search, and see that you're right about the high fan activation temperature. Today I removed the fans and ran the car from cold with my hand on the radiator fins and felt that only one small section was warm (and it was very warm) whereas the rest is cold. Replaced the radiator, and I'm not feeling the same hot spotting anymore. However, the lower hose is still noticably colder than the upper even when the car is above the temperature at which the thermostat should open, and the heater is non op as well.
