Considering an 02 V70 T5-Need advice on service records

Post by Eddie »

Here are some service records I have on this car Im considering buying.
Are any of these major things to make me not buy the car?
Car has 72,500 on it now.

-at 43,000- customer hears pinging noise- Solution-replaced sealing rings, glued axles back in

-at 52,500 replaced inner tie rods and vehicle was aligned

-car came back in customer hears rubbing when turning hard left or right-
Solution-replace wheel stops

-replace top motor mount at 62,500

Other than that, all visits were stamped in book by local dealer.
Do any of these things sound abnormal (i was concerned about the axle issue at 43k.

Any advice would be great.

Thanks,,
Eddie
