White smoke from the exhaust is a sign of a blown head gasket. Stop driving the car until you get this repaired. Coolant in the combustion chamber will destroy this engine in short order.

Are you referring to a loud exhaust sound?

That covers the exhaust system. If you are talking about a noisy clattering sound in the engine, you could possibly need a valve adjustment.
