White smoke, burning smell off passenger side engine. no exhaust smoke.
Hi
White smoke is burning engine oil.
mostly when Engine oil is changed or topped up
little oil get dropped and when engine heats up. it burns the oil.
but once oil is burnt then no more smoke is there.
unless you have a leak
thanks

this is usually the sign of a blown head gasket. you may also want to check your catalytic converter . look for signs of water in your oil by checking your dip stick. if your oil is a brownish color or you see water on the dip stick, your head gasket is blown and the rough idle is being caused by water leaking into the combustion chamber. when engine coolant is burned it gives off white smoke and it gives off a kind of sweet smell from the exhaust. if the exhaust smells more like oil, piston rings may be the cause. a compression test will help get you on the right track.

White smoke is caused by coolant or water coming out the tail pipe. There is a chance that the white smoke was caused by water splashing up from a puddle onto the exhaust pipe. Keep an eye on the coolant level in the radiator in any event. If its less then there leak coolant leak in the car engine which is causing this problem....

i would check all the basics like spark plugs and check for vacuum leaks around the intake manifold.With a can of 2+2 carb cleaner while engine is running --if idle goes up or down that is were your leak is--
check egr too, Lee
