Smoke out of tail pipe on startup

MJKustom · 03-21-2008, 05:13 AM

When i started my car the last couple of times i notice a good puff of white/blue smoke (its hard to tell what color so far) comes out of the tail pipes for a second is this normal during brake in or should i just forget about. I will keep checking the oil to see if i am losing any. Thanks

It was very cold last night here in the north east. My car does the same thing when it's really cold out and has been since new.

Maybe you should be clearer on cold. Because it has been in the 30's here and i've had nothing like that.

30's ain't cold, -40's cold

i'd get it checked.
