Hi Guys,

Second post here...

Where I am looking at buying the Mazda 5, and coming from Ford, I know I can use ForScan to do diagnostics on the car (or at least, I think I can!) however, I was wondering if Mazda has an equivelant software which I used on all my fords (Elm Config)?

Basically, if you arent aware of what it is, it allows you to modify settings of the car, from small details such as indicator flash time, to other light times, to alsorts such as enabling features typically installed on other trims (I could add things like auto locking, cruise control, gear shift indicators etc)

 

In the end I did purchase the 5, but still looking for a piece of software as above, as described - if anyone knows anything!

 

Not sure folks here get into too much on the technical end of their Mazdas. Not much mention of anything Forscan when I search.

 

Never seen Forscan, when I worked at Ford ( pre 2013) we used IDS ( Integrated Diagnostic System) So did Mazda, and still do under licence.
