Best Answer

Blue smoke is a symptom of oil burning. Grey or white smoke is a symptom of coolant entering the combustion chamber. Oil is getting into the combustion chamber where it is being burnt. Can be worn piston rings, or a broken ring. Coolant may also be entering the combustion chamber due to a blown head gasket, cracked head, or both. Your problem may be just a blown head gasket. Seek professional help immediately and stop driving this car until you have it repaired. If you continue to drive it you may destroy the engine depending on exactly what the problem is.
