Hello my good people, please I bought a naija used 2008 RAV4 but it has been parked for about a year I discovered that it has little white smoke even after I changed the oil and I also added stop smoke but it didn't stop the smoke tho the smoke doesn't come out until I raised the car, my mechanic said it will stop after driving for some time, the car drives smoothly and the engine sound very well.
Please is there anything I can do to the smokes. Thanks

It is either the gasket of the car has been changed before or the rigs are weak.
If the oil is burning/shorting badly, then get ready to change the engine in about a year from now!
Meanwhile, congratulations and enjoy your new ride.
