Wastegate rattle is pretty much a big issue which u need to make sure the car does not have or even better if it has been fixed previously (wastegate actuators or new turbo set up)
How is this wrong advice? Wouldn't you want to know the work that was done on your car? WOuld you like to know the type of driver?

Personally, I like a nice clean canvas to paint my own picture on. I'm not into inheriting someone else's issues, regardless of warranty extensions and whatnot.

While it is true that new turbos are always a good thing, wouldn't you want to know that they were replaced? At least know what you are getting into before you sign.
