When car is put in drive, it dies, u can put it in reverse and it will go backwards fine. If u rev the engine up and drop it in drive it will go, but like it is in 4th gear, and when it gets up to speed it shifts fine to higher gears, then when you slow down to stop it dies again. Any ideas IV been told torque converter, but no codes show up, is there a code for the actually converter?

not for a converter, but a solenoid, try cleaning throttle plate on both sides with choke cleaner then check fuel pressure with a gauge auto parts rent it.
