Engine Cooling problem
1988 BMW 320 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

White smoke coming out from my exhaust recently. I noticed it happen after I put the antifreeze into my coolant, never happen before if I didn't put the antifreeze. The only reason for filling the antifreeze into the coolant because I just leave my car inside garage during weekdays, only used during weekend, afraid that the water will freeze up. Is there anyway I can solve this problem easily and doesn't cost lots of money? I done MOT test last October, and everything going just fine. Thank you

Its probably just condensation but after awhile should clear up if not there's a problem- Are you overheating?

Thank you for your reply. No, not overheating. The white smoke keep blowing from the exhaust during driving, I can see it from my side mirror. Why its only happen when I fill the coolant with antifreeze?
