When you removed the air box, did you somehow keep the wiring connected to avoid the error code with engine idling?Just did mine today, opted to remove the air box. Really, it's only about 3 or 4 minutes more and you have a whole lot of room to check fluid at the right temp. Drained about 3 quarts and a few ounces, put the same back and the level fell right in line. Hardest part was taking the undercovers off. I hate those push-pins...View attachment 318346

Most posts I’ve seen that ~3¾ quarts are the quantity the ATF drained for a drain-and-fill. Yours seems to be on the low side? And you used the same amount to refill. Did you keep your CX-5 leveled? Did you check the ATF temperature close to 122°F when you checked the ATF level?
