Still running hot...

RE: Still running hot...
Scratch all that. I drove around more tonight and it damn near overheated. Went and bought two new fan sensors, four and five pin. Installed them and it didn't fix anything. So to recap, two t stats, cooling sensor, and now fans sensors, not losing ANY fluid, stays cool at high speeds but close to over heating during stop and go type driving.
This isn't making any sense to me.

Waterpump???
I've never tested this before but maybe take off the top radiator hose and put it in an old ice cream plastic bucket and run the car. See if it starts spitting fluid.

I'm 99% sure it's not the water pump. There is no odd sound and NO leakage of fluid.
I did notice though that only one fan is coming on. The girl at the auto store thought it might be the thermostat sender or something like that which is a special order only.
I'm sick of messing with this though. As inconvientent as it is I'm gonna have to take it to the shop. I have a long trip next week and I can't chance things.

The shop told me it's the fan module/fan assembly. I can't seem to find much information on this part. It's going to cost $500 to fix it, which seems very high but I have nothing to prove it. And since I really need my car I can't afford to run it all over town looking for a better deal. Not to mention that wherever I take it I have to ride my bike back from.
Any thoughts?
