Does it feel like it’s misfiring or low on power at high rpm?

Does the gear shift really? One thing is the shift lever at the center console, the other thing is the cable from there to the side of the transmission, maybe it broke or slipped?

If that does not help, then maybe the manual shift valve inside the valve body is broken, this is an example from an E36 with ZF 5hP18.
And did you check the transmission fluid level?

Can you feel it shift but it has very annemic acceleration? If so it may be a bad torque converter.

Have you changed the filter? You may have blockages in your valve body.
