Default struggles to shift into 3rd

2011 silverado 1500 4.8l with the 4l60e.
struggles to shift into 3rd gear will sometimes slip and act like its in neutral but if you let off the throttle it will go into 3rd gear. will not go into 4th gear. Transmission fluid is fine, trans temp 160 has gotten to 190 from it riding 2nd to limp home. Manual shifting will work for 1st and second but the same issue applies to 3rd gear.
