We live in Florida and this occurs all year long, thru humid and dry weather. Our mechanic say's not to worry but there seems to be more white smoke on the first start up of the day. This has been occuring for approximately one and ahalf years now. Any and all help/suggestions is appreciated.

    if it has a blue tint to it the valve seals could be bad. very common on these cars

    If it is only on start up and doesn't do anything the rest of day just check oil level regularly. I agree with your mechanic.
