I know when I visited my folks in the UK, their 1996 850 wagon (10V 2.5) didn't have the A5/6 ports either, so probably don't have them for some reason. Our 93 850 NA in Canada did, so maybe it is something to do with different emissions, just as the European P80's have to North America?

The A-6 port only works with the Jetronic LH3.2 ECU system. Your T5R has a Motronic ECU and it uses only port A-2. There are some other variants like the Fenix setup and I'm not sure if it was a single module or a two modules setup. We don't have many, if any at all, of the Fenix equipped cars in the US so I've never seen one.
