I always believed the average life of a heating element was 5+ years. A quick Google suggests 5 years. A check of the Miele spare parts online suggests 5-10 years.
At least the check is simple: simple multimeter continuity test.
Tested every 2 years as part of the general service - replaced as necessary. We replaced most of the elements last year, in the 6th year of ownership. And yes a multimeter is how they check it.
Replaced every 2 years?
