OK Guys I have noticed that at idle my car seems to be puffing some sort of smoke, doesn't seem to be anything drastic but I don't see other cars doing it, I am not really paying attention either... I did not notice this till today, I am not sure if it is the danky weather or what, but I am concerned nonetheless. Any advice would be appreciated.

could be condensation... was it in the morning that this happened? Was there color to this? Or did it look more like steam? White smoke = coolant burning... black smoke = burning oil.

 

I am thinking it has to do with the CRAZy humidity around here lately. Should I go to the dealer and get screwed, I am hoping someone more versed in engines and smoke can gimme an idea. Shing, it just seems like regular exhaust, no color to it as I can tell., I put my finger in the tailpipe when I got home and there was some black reside, but nothing that seemed very excessive at all, especially since I never clean my tailpipe.

 

Actually, smoke from burning oil is blue or blueish grey.

 

black smoke could mean bad valves, you got unburnt gas, bad cat.
