I've just had the DMF changed under warranty (thankfully) on our 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe with 50k miles. The list price of the part alone was £1600, and, as I anticipate keeping the car another 50-60K, I'm rather keen not to have to change it again.

Is there any general consensus on how to reduce wear on these things (or what sort of use tends to shorten or extend their life)?

Thanks for the replies folks, sounds like sensible advice. Prepare for a re-post in (hopefully) 100k time saying it's still going strong!
