Hi my car had the bearing in the drive-shaft changed about months ago there was a lot of play in the shaft since then there has been no problems until about 2 months ago there's been vibrating and shaking in the car when I go over 60 k and I can hear knocking sound then last week it started to leak gear oil from the shaft there's a good bit leaking to. Any ideas what might be going on?

If it's leaking from the same place that they put the bearing in, I'd say they didn't do a good job. If so, I take it back to that same shop and make them fix it. That being said, I wouldn't drive the vehicle anymore to prevent damage to the transmission
