if everything checks out ok (like no trouble codes),

it may just be water vapor (unless it "smells" sweet ~ sign of antifreeze out the exhaust)

only doing this on cold startup? not during engine operating temps? sometimes in certain times of the year, any vehicle has excessive white smoke/ water vapor
