White smoke, well that sounds like a bad head gasket.
Take the res cap off.
Tie a latex glove over the opening really tight.
Start the engine, and from under the hood rev the engine as high as you can for 40-45 seconds, if the glove inflates bad head gasket.
Second clue is that when the expansion jug is closed tight and you start the car do the hoses balloon and be come hard to squeeze? Bad head gasket.

Bad Cold start plugs can cause starting issues when was the last time you checked or changed them. You can pull the number 4 and number 3 out easily, and jumper them out on the battery hold with pliers as they get hot. If they don't get red hot in 7-15 seconds they are bad.
White/grey means either unburned fuel and or antifreeze mixing.
