Will the older Mapsource maps download to the 76CSx? Mine are about 4
years old. Thanks.

They should work, which ones are they? MetroGuide 4.02 will upload autorouting maps, MetroGuide 5.0 and up will upload maps but they will not autoroute.

There is a third party "hack" or wizard that can enable autorouting on MetroGuide maps that would not normally autoroute.

All version of City Navigator will work but will require unlocking to the 76Cx. CN allowed two unlocks in the older versions, it you only used one you can use the other for you 76Cx.

U.S. Topo, BlueChart, WorldMap, and the various older fishing and waterways products will also work. I normally have a card in my 76Cx that has City Navigator, U.S. Topo, MetroGuide 4.02, and BlueChart mapping on it and can select any one for use quickly.
