If it was cold you can get white smoke till engine warms up or
With your other problems aswell it could be the headgasket thats gone, have you got any mayo on filler cap? Check the dipstick for oil levels too.

it was cold when i looked as with all the problems im having at the moment i dont realy wanna run the car till it heats up lol
the garage checked the dipstick last week n said there was a pint n half too much oil in it but the funny thing is i havent filled the oil up or anything since i bought it in sept 08 and always checking the levels n its always looked fine.. anyway he obviously took the pint n half out but now i check it again too much again?
no mayo on any caps
