Heres the dilemma I was driving today to work and after I hit the 80-90mph range I Noticed a big clump of white smoke coming from my exhaust pipe, it only last a few seconds then went away. I checked my coolant...its good there. Also the tempature gauge didnt go up or change at all during the incident. It happened like 4 times while I was driving. Anyone have any idea what it could be? Thanks in advance =D (KA24DE)

yeap your head gasket went bad.

unless you car was like mine see no white smoke comming from the exhuast but from the motor. i blew one of the heater hoses.


just make sure you check your oil to see if your oil is milky. if its milky i recommend you to drain your oil out. all of it. then put the new headgasket on. fill it back with new oil after your done replacing the headgasket.

Sounds like a headgasket.? So is it still doin this or only happen in higher RPM? How many miles on the car? etc.
