Re: Oil buring?

White smoke indicates burning coolant, whereas blue smoke is oil burning. Your head gasket may be blown. Any overheating problems?

White smoke = coolant.

Check your cooling system for leaks.
Blown head gasket maybe, or thermostat.

Its something stupid [ ;

Probably a head gasket. Replace the gasket along with your timing belt.
