Default 98 GS300 Trans Shutter w/no codes

Hi, Car has 250K miles. We are 2nd owner for 8 years. Started gradually what seemed to be a hesitation at around 2000-2500 RPMS. No codes. Initially checked plugs and cleaned MAS which had zero effect. Finally figured it was the transmission not wanting to shift in to next gear so did 3 drain and fills with Toyota Fluid Fluid and checked and changed the trans filter. Then added some of that shutter treatment which did not do anything. The fluid was a bit dirty but not burned smelling and the filter was very clean. Thinking the issue is torque convertor and or clutch plates vs Electronic and or a shift solenoid. Curious how often a shift solenoid goes without ever throwing a code or anything else that would not require replacing the transmissin without throwing a code?

Thank You.

How does behave if you shift through the gears manually?
