learn to open it up and check it over.
@Sparky This. Not too hard and plenty of online guides, Sheldon Brown has links to manuals for various IGH models. As for which oil to use, any auto transmission fluid should be ok.
@Sparky I'd say bite the bullet and learn to open it up and check it over. Ive not had an A11 but the A8 is easy to get in to.
In my experience by the time it's starting to feel rough it's too late, get it open at least to check the oil or grease on a regular basis.
