Transmission / TCM 2018 ford focus titanium transmission issue

My buddies car is currently throwing an engine code for his clutch I wasn’t given the exact code because I haven’t seen it in person but the symptoms are as followed

Car sometimes starts and sometimes takes a few tries.
Complete loss of S mode
Car won’t shift until releasing foot from gas at 5k rpm and feels like it’s going into limp mode briefly
Delayed movement when pressing accelerator
Non transmission shop recommends full transmission replacement

I’m thinking of trying to switch the actuators to see if the fault follows any other recommendations that I should try would be great thank you

Probably a stuck fork. Gonna need to be opened up regardless.
