Whites normally a coolant leak /burning but on cold mornings could be alot of condensation built up in pipes but should burn off, not an expert but when i decatted my 300zx tt it went white for a while and was put down do the turbo seals after decat dont want to worry you as said i`m no expert.

Lots of white with a de-cat. Its normal for this time of year and the colder it gets the more it will notice. Wait till its really cold and let it idle from cold start. the amount of white smoke is almost scary

the cars running a 100% just this was worrying me thought it was burning oil wot colour of smoke is burnt oil just thought it was strange that it didnt happen all the time how would the condensation build up could it be wen the turbo timer is running? dont no for sure but i get a burnt oil smell but it could be the oil that has shot out from the dump valve over the head and block wot you think ? cheers

Mine smokes a bit in the mornings now, but clears soon enough once its warm. Starting my landy in the cold is funny. Plumes of white/blue/stinking smoke! Big ole petrol engine, straight through pipes and an unhealthy amount of abuse
