Check your injectors
It is important to understand when the white smoke is coming. If white smoke is coming at idle or low rpm's after long motoring, it is most likely a injector problem. I had similar problem and after several trials, I was able to locate the root cause. I removed the injectors, let them re-adjusted. There is no more smoke problem since that time (2 years ago) If it is continuous white smoke, there could be other problems(injection timing, cylinder head gasket etc). Please check if it is steam or smoke? If it is steam, not smoke, there could be some problems with the cooling system.

does the smoke evaporate?
Had everybody tell me I had an engine problem due to white smoke. It only happened on cool mornings. Just the normal steam cloud like your car puts out when it is cooler. Look to see if the "smoke" disappears as it drifts away. If so then it is just water vapor. If it persists then you have an engine problem.
