If its white smoke and disappears once the cars warmed up i wouldnt worry about it, its probbly just condensation :wink:

When i'd left my car standing a while it chucked out a load of smoke due to oil seeping into the system. Maybe you got a leak somewhere??

If it's condensation, you shouldn't get so much on warmer mornings and it should disappear fairly quickly, slower on colder mornings.
If it's smoke it will hang around longer before it disappears.
