A DPF is a consumable part. The time between replacement depends on how the car is driven - budget for £500-1000 at some point after 50,000 miles and you will be prepared. A colleague just had a new one on a Mondeo (£500) after 130,000 mainly motorway miles (car is almost 6 years old), I've known others fail at 50-60,000 - largely 'pootle round town' motors purchased by those who want to save a few quid on fuel, forgetting they are killing the expensive DPF very quickly!

Afternoon all. Owned my 2014 Forester 2.0 XE for almost two years. As reliable and dependable as I hoped it would be. Hope I can have some input from my ownership experience of Subaru and other general car knowledge I've picked up over the years.
