One of the common reasons is blown head gasket. This allows coolant to enter the engine and that creates white smoke. If the leak is minimal, it can only do it after it sits for a while but burns off after startup.
It will be a good idea to do a blown head gasket test.

Please let me know what you find or if you have any questions.
Thank you.
