Default Greasing the drive shaft

I was wondering where are the zirks on my 2004 XJ8 drive shaft that I should grease. I did a search on this forum and nothing turned up for the X350.

There are no grease nipples anywhere on these cars, all bearings and ball joints have the grease sealed "for life". Virtually all cars these days have no re-greasing points.

Of course over time the bearing will wear out, but at a vastly greater mileage than the old ones that had a grease nipple, unless the seals split or fail.
