What causes Car to skip, white smoke under hood

Hello, first - don't drive any more until resolving your concern. When you have performance issues and white smoke - it's a sign to stop. If you continue driving, you could experience a safety concern or increase vehicle damage. Then, check for the source of the smoke. There must be some kind of fluid leak - coolant, oil, something of that nature causing the smoke. This may or may not be related to your "skip" concern. Once the smoking is sorted out, then check engine performance by performing diagnostic testing. You'll need a workshop manual, wiring diagram and a computer or diagnostic tool capable of retrieving trouble codes and checking the operation of components. Seek guidance at a local shop near you if you don't do this kind of work yourself! https://repairpal.com/auto-repair-near-me Click the link or call us at 877-913-1554.
