Default CONVERTER Lockup problems!!!!!!

Tuner is haveing problems getting my 2005 a4 torque converter to listen to commands. Trying to stop converter from locking up right after shifting into 3rd gear at the track. I know 2005 was a wierd year but man this is slowing us down....... Any ideas would be helpful, WITH THE 18INCH SLICKS CAR LOSES SPEEDOMETER AT 100MPH, WITH THE FACT 19S THE SPEEDO STAYS ON, MAYBE THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH WHATS GOING ON........... HELP IS NEEDED

no its not that, i have ran 17 and 18 and 19, 305 to 275 and even if the speedo didnt work it still registers in hp tuners but its not accurate because i never changed the tire size in hp tuners so my street tires read the correct mph on the street but they will lose the mph on fast launches
