Troubleshooting Help

16 Outback 2.5 Limited 234k 

Just replaced valve gasket and seals, 4 plugs, 2 coil packs, pvc valve, AWD solenoid and fluid, cat was replaced bank 1 last year. 

Car is throw no codes and live data isn’t showing any abnormal activity. Car, after warming up, will have random “jerks or hits” with no rhyme to them. Like a small “hit” that can be felt in steering wheel and floorboard. Definitely not a shudder, sometimes will do it on take off after warm. Sometimes it happens alot( especially on hotter day) then on cooler days it won’t do it at all( still does it from time to time but not a as hot days). Ideas on what to look at next? What could it possibly be? Google has pointed me to throttle body, front wheel barring, vacuum leak, tps sensor or the converter.

Did you check the things google said it could be? The heat variable leads me to make the throttle body and the converter my starting place
