I'm pretty sure this isnt a major problem but I'm not quite sure what this could be, low on oil? need a change?

thanks all >>

mine does the same thing sometimes. I think it is the valve seals that causes it. Sometimes I'll add a little oil additive to thicken the oil up a bit. It seams to stop most of the smoke. I don't think I have seen smoke come out mine in quite awhile now come to think of it.

Mine does the same thing. I've got almost 160,000 miles on it though. I'd say that you're fine as long as it just smokes right and first and doesn't continue to do it.

its just the valve stem seals. Its pretty normal for cars with higher miles. You might notice alittle oil use and its really just a annoying.

Nothing to worry about. I bought mine 5 years ago with 100,000 miles on it, and it was doing that at first. Never seemed to hurt anything, and it's had the valve cover gasket replaced a couple times since then, and now I've got 225,000 miles on it, and it doesn't do it at all anymore. Of course, I use high mileage Castrol oil, so maybe that's the secret. Runs like a champ!
