Hello, the weather is cold. This is the evaporation of the moisture left in the exhaust and in the exhaust manifold due to heat. I think there is nothing to worry about. Because I see it in most cars in cold weather.
We hope you will enjoy your vehicle.

it is usually caused by the cool weather. still follow the vehicle's oil and antifreeze levels.

If there is smoke at first, first have the spark plugs checked, hodja. The glow plug will blow your job 99%.

Glow plug or one of the injectors may be throwing too much diesel.

One of the possible problems is the glow plug if it gives error P1351. If the smoke is also on the threshold in the first run, one or all of the injectors may be leaking. In industry it's called "injector pee" LOL. After stopping, the pressure in the pump system flows over the leaky injector onto the piston, the fuel that is not fully burned in the first run is thrown out as raw. It produces a hazy smoke with a dark blue-white haze in color, the smell of which burns the throat. Cleaning the injectors will not solve the problem since it is a mechanical failure, so replacement is a must.
Suggestion; For a full tank of diesel, mix up to 300 ml of red ATF automatic transmission oil. It works on old diesels, but we need to try if it works on common rail diesel.
