Usually somewhere between 50 and 80 years, though water chemistry and the pitch of the line matter as much as the calendar does. Rust builds inward, so the pipe narrows well before it leaks. A camera inspection is what tells you where a given stack actually stands.

Iron is dark and heavy and sounds solid when tapped, where plastic pipe is white or black and light enough to move by hand. Both turn up in the same older house, with plastic patched into an original iron run.

Air is being pulled through the trap because the vent or the stack can't clear fast enough. On an older iron system that usually points to restriction rather than a design fault. It's worth looking at before the line backs up entirely.
