I need to know what kind of oil I should use for my Midland transmission. I have a 2003 R50 with about 76k on it. The transmission has a weird sound like squeaking rubber when I shift. And also, where should I have them change the oil? I know they do it at like Brake Masters and other places but should I have them do it?

 

It's a little bit of a pain because the drain and fill plugs are in a bad spot but it can be done in a driveway. I had mine done when my car was inspected at a local garage I trust. Also, I use (along with a lot of other people here) used RedLine's MTL. Great stuff, costs maybe $6-8 a quart. You'll need 2-3. The weight is 70W80 Manual Trans Lubricant (MTL).

 

I will also vote for Redline MTL.
If you can change oil you can do the trans.
The fill plug is the fill sight hole, on a level surface.

I put a tube (maybe 2 feet) on a funnel, & into the fill hole and, tape the funnel so that I can pour in the fluid. When it "overflows" out of the site it is full.

 

Could you guys maybe take some pictures for me?

 

And also where is the fill sight hole?

 

I'd take pictures, but I won't be changing my fluid for several months...

You should invest in a haynes or bentley manual. The ultimate DIY manuals.
