Service information question.

[Herra Mazda]

Does anyone have a good source for service information for Mazdas, specifically the KF CX-5? I would be willing to subscribe to the MGSS for a short time to get the information I need for routine maintenance procedures and specifications, etc... but I have no computers with Windows 10, only 11 or Linux. I have been having trouble finding either service information to download or evidence that Mazda's MGSS will work with Windows 11.

what is MGSS?

Mazda Global Service Support, Welcome to Mazda Service Info, where you can subscribe to service information. I am not a big fan of subscriptions, but if that's what you have to do, so be it in my opinion. I just don't want to subscribe to anything if I need Win 10 which I haven't got.

I see. Last time I used it it worked with Windows 7 and latest Firefox Try that. You can install a version of Firefox on win7 - if you go to Firefox dowload their site will guide you which version still works on Win7

I got rid most all of my old stuff... although I do have a laptop laying around that I could install Win 10 on. I was kinda hoping not to set up another PC just for that. I know as late as 2017 there were some GM service manuals available as secure USB thumb drives. Too bad that isn't an option. Guess I'm just being a little lazy.

Why would you think it wouldn't work with Win11? It's all browser-based, and the files (if you download them) are all PDFs. Just ignore the "Win10 Pro" statement on the page.

For routine maintenance and basic repairs there is quite a bit of information here:

Windows 11 is very similar to 10.

I just noticed (my bad) you have Windows 11 originally thought you only got old versions.
So the site is browser based so it would work.

Windows 11 comes with Edge. it would work.

ps best part is when subscribing you also get all TSBs and other stuff beside the repair docs. To me its worth it.

MGSS can be overwhelming. I donated the $30 and found it extremely difficult to use. It works fine with windows 11.
