Best Answer

Thick white smoke is an indication of coolant entering the combustion chamber. More than likely you have a blown head gasket, especially if the engine has overheated recently. Stop driving this car as severe engine damage will occur due to coolant in the oil. The heads must be removed and new head gaskets installed. A major repair. Sorry but that might be a head gasket going or already gone Are you loosing coolant or is the temp gauge riding higher than usual Also check your oil If it looks like a milkshake chances are your headgasket is blown
