When I started playing again I couldn't tongue above clarion high C. When I was tonguing I was moving the back of my tongue/palate/throat (mostly my palate), so it would just squeak. I was doing the same thing on the lower notes, but they are more stable, so it wasn't as noticeable. After a while I got my tonguing figured out and could hold everything else still. Focus on holding your palate and throat still while tonguing the lower notes, then try the third register.
