Ford Focus - 2.0TDCI vs 1.6TDCI reliability - werewhelk

Hi, can anyone offer any advice on the reliability of the 2.0TDCI engine?

I'm looking at buying a 2.0TDCI Focus 2009 with 54K and ford FSH, but seeing all the bad stories about the 1.6 has put me off a bit .

Is the 2.0 TDCI likely to throw up the same issues as the 1.6 TDCI re: the DPF etc?

Cheers,

Tim
