The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

More detailed than I thought, still trying to navigate through it, not what I thought it would be, thought it would be more like the Haynes manual.

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

Excellent. Now I can actually start working on my cars again with confidence. YouTube videos really are inadequate.

Schematics were not high resolution making the markings and names difficult to read when zoomed in. Improvement is needed. Otherwise it is a good document.

I wasn’t sure why I needed this to be a PDF, but it was apparent once I got it. It includes what would be thousands of pages if it were in print. The links take you to wherever you need to go in the text.

I didn’t realize I would have a link in an email to click to get another email with another link to download.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

Fitment on this one is exact: the 1990 Mazda MPV factory service and repair manual is written to this model year and to the engine and trim actually in the bay, whether that is the 2.6L L4 or the 3.0L V6 (JE), so the clearances and torque sequences you work to are the ones Mazda published for this van and not a figure carried over from an adjacent year.

Engines covered

  • 3.0L V6 (180 cu in) — SOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 2.6L inline-four — SOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 3-door standard cargo van
  • 3-door standard passenger van

Trims covered

  • Cargo
  • Passenger

Known issues on the 1990 MPV. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the ignition switch: the grease applied to the contact points inside the ignition switch can become conductive and overheat, and if the ignition switch overheats there is an increased risk of a fire. The second covers the rear drum brake linings, whose coefficient of friction can increase as the brakes wear, producing inconsistent rear brake performance and premature activation of the ABS system, which can cause sudden stops or increased braking distances and an increased risk of a vehicle accident. The third covers the front safety belt buckle assemblies, where the red plastic release buttons can break and pieces can fall into the buckle assembly, causing the buckle to operate improperly, so the safety belts would not provide adequate protection to an occupant in a vehicle crash. Owners have logged 52 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you are chasing heat at the ignition switch, sorting out rear drums that grab early, or replacing a broken front belt buckle, it holds you to Mazda's own procedure and the correct specification for this 1990 MPV.
