I've been noticing that whenever I first start my car or when my car is idle, there seems to be some white smoke coming out from the muffler. I just recently purchased the car and had the oil replaced and also had an engine and radiator flush. There don't seem to be any leaks. What could be causing this smoke?

If its not overheating and you don't have to constantly add coolant/and the temperature gauge is not at the danger zone-it probably condensation-

Or you can have it checked for combustion gas leakage in the cooling system by getting a block or pressure tested.
