White smoke is usually an indicator of water or coolant. Some white smoke is normal until the engine warms up. If it continues to smoke after warmup, you could have coolant leaking into the combustion chamber /cylinder. Sources could inclued an intercooler leak, intake gasket, head gasket, cracked head or block. Don't let this problem go uncorrected long. It can lead to more damage as the oil gets diluted/contaminated.
