Blue smoke = burning oil.
White smoke = burning coolant.
Get a pressure test done on your cooling system. More than likely you have a head gasket leak. Also have it tested both cold and hot. Because if it only leaks a little cold and a lot hot then you head is warping.

mm

Blue - oil burning
white - coolant burning or oil burning on the exhaust side.

This is mainly for the swapped folks that might come across a turbo leaking out the exhaust seals.
It also causes white smoke.

You most likely have a HG leak from what you are saying.
