ford mondeo auto gearbox problems, no 2nd gear?

I have the exact same car and has just started doing the same thing- first time when i was suppose to do a long trip! great :-S
Was told to do the plugs...but that hasnt helped.
Its rough as guts going up into 2nd gear but not when it is changing down. Slight jault going from 2nd-3rd but not as bad. Overdrive light is flashing aswell :-(

Hi the problem here is a broken intermediate brake band you should find that 4th gear is affected too.Can be repaired in situ no problem.Might be worth checking servo first (located on bottom of transmission). another problem which can cause this problem is a faulty speedo transducer.Good luck.
