Smoke coming out of tailpipe on startup only

It is not dark at all. I would say in my novice opinion it is white. It runs just fine. I just get embarrassed from the smoke. Its weird because it doesn't happen all the time but it happens several times a week. I don't know if it makes a difference but I have noticed that in the morning it is sometimes hard to turn the car until it has been running for a little while.

If it is a white smoke, then that is an indicator that coolant could be getting into the cylinders. However, if you aren't having overheating issues or sluggish running of engine, then you aren't dealing with that most likely. Our best opinion without seeing the car is that you are probably seeing a light gray smoke and have some valve seals that are bad. Not a big issue, but over time smoking will probably get more consistent and eventually burn out plugs.

So how much would repairs cost on average
