C32 converter or oilpump?

The next problem i have with My car is that its jerking, it feels like its almost slipping. I changed the pwm solenoid after it was failing the car didnt drive but after changing the solenoid it worked again. But now there is some wining and slip so i was thinking how to determinate what is failing in the car i have a chinese star that i borrowed ... im thinking converter or oilpump? (I have changed electrical plate,and put in the Sonax kit)

Is there any way to check it without taking it down?

are the cataytic converters prone to fail this early in these models or is this a case where as it can happen to any car that early?

Reason being I'm picking up a used C32 amg tomorrow and just want a heads up as to is this something I should replace before failure occurs so that it may not cause other damages to different engine & exhaust components when failing IF to fail in the future.
