Default New solenoids didn't fix slipping issue?

2009 Chevrolet Impala LT 3.5L console shifter 4T65E

This car still has the same problems we had when we started back in July of 2021.

The car drives fine then feels like it loses gears then will drive fine again with no issues, it will lose gears when slowing down to turn or stop but then they all just come back and it drives fine?

We have replaced the engine and transmission, we flushed the lines before installing the new/salvage transmission, new trans filter & gasket(the reusable one).
We had an issue with the line popped off lost all fluid and had to get new clips.
Then the seal had to be replaced between the trans and engine because it started leaking fluid.
Then we replaced the TCM(we have 5 now).
We just replaced the 1st & 2nd Gear Solenoid, 2nd & 3rd Gear Solenoid, Pressure Control Solenoid, Turbine Speed Sensor Solenoid, Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid, Pressure Switch Manifold, Wiring Harness, & did the TSB magnet on the filter and it still has the same issues.

Since July 2021 and now this car hasn't driven more than 150 miles and all of that was test driving after our fixes to see if we fixed it. We work on it think we fixed it test drive it and realize it's still broken and park it until we try again. It's a nice car and the engine runs like a dream but we are at a loss what to do with this transmission issue. Any advice?

Sounds like you put in a dead transmission. Always use an off the shelf dyno tested remanufactured transmission that comes with a warranty.
