You may have a blown head gasket. The white smoke may actually be steam from coolant leaking into the combustion chambers. If your car is using a lot of water, this would back up the blown head gasket theory.
White smoke is coolant and black smoke is oil. I agree that this is likely a problem with your head gasket.
