Default Has anyone had to change a drive shaft?

Has anyone had to change a drive shaft, particularly on a CDT, due to the bush that goes into the differential oil seal wearing?

I changed my offside oil seal some time round about August or afterwards last year and notice it seems to be leaking again. To say I'm gutted is an understatement.

I'm a bit worried I having a run on leaks.

Are you sure the seal is sitting right in? I had this when I first changed my clutch. I had a slight weep that disappeared after a gentle tap with a toffee hammer and a wooden drift.
