Unlikey as DMFs are regarded as consumables(even though single mass flywheels always lasted the lifetime of the car), plus the clutch must be changed as well, you're looking at a 1,500+ bill if it goes to a main dealer, probably a good bit under that at an indy but it's going to be expensive either way.

If it's any consolation, all modern diesels with manual gearboxes have these and you're just as likely to have this problem with any other make of diesel, it's far from something exclusive to a Ford I'm afraid.
