Smoking

Just noticed this smoke yesterday. After a while it stops but that's a good bit of smoke so I'm guessing I should be worried.

Sorry I can't embed a video in the post on my phone.

It's an auto trans, b18a engine. Not completely sure on miles

Looks like condensation to me. Put a piece of paper towel over the tail pipe. Does it get wet or greasy?

Seriously, if your engine was smoking THAT much oil it wouldn't be running (or for long).

I'm 90% sure that is (mostly) condensation. The title of the video says temp was 55, this only occurs before the car has warmed up. From what I can tell, the smoke doesn't have the blue tint to it that burning oil does. Regardless, the fact that this happens before the engine is warm and the temp is 55 degrees tells me that it's condensation in the exhaust.

I didn't even think of condensation lol. Which I should have because I noticed there was A LOT inside on my windows. I probably need to have my weather stripping redone or something. Needed to squeegee the inside of my windshield just to drive.
