So everytime I start my Jimmy, I get white smoke. Not a crap load but constant white coming out. Maybe it's becuase of the cold weather, but even after it warms up, and I re start it, same thing. I checked the oil and it doesn't appear that there is any water in it. The smoke does smell like coolant, but my coolant levels are fine. If there is a leak, where should I check?

Leak from the intake manifold gasket, coolant leaking in to the intake ports. But if your not losing any coolant, then it's just condensation with the smell of the engine running rich from a cold start.

Good luck and keep us posed, that other thing also you can have done is a coolant pressure test to see if there is a leak. ;)
