What could be causing my car to throw white vapor from the exhaust? It kinda seems like white smoke but its actually vapor. There is no coolant in the oil, no rough ideling, no loss of power. What could be causing this? And the coolant tank is at the same levler it was 2 weeks ago. And by the time I drive about 3 miles or so, it goes away. What could it be?

You may be having a large amount of condensation due to the possibility that, one, the pcv valve is near a complete clog. And egr tube may be close to be clogged, , also check your brake fluid to see if it is mysteriously disappearing, with a bad booster seal, it could be sucking brake fluid into the combustion chamber
