Transmission over temp message

White smoke is a sign of water in the piston area. Could be a blown head gasket. Keep your eye on the rad and see if the fluid goes down over a period of time. as well.

If the engine is running and the car won't go, it is a problem in the drive train; clutch, transmission, driveline(s). Smoke out the oil fill (a small amount) is normal.

Hey, I see this kind of problem all the time. You should check to see if your radiator fans are coming on at idle. Because most likely they are not so that's why it over heats while it is at idle....there is no cool air cooling down the engine. Hope this helps!

Transmission is not engaging. Bad torque converter or solenoids.

engine getting too much fuel, overhaul fuel system , check spark plugs and ht cables.

Try starting the motor in the "Clear Flood Mode" which is starting it while you press and hold the pedal to the floor, this will cause the injectors to close. Sometimes if the temp sensor goes bad it will command the ecm to pump more fuel resulting in a rich mixture. Was the smoke black? If so there's a fuel mix issue.

Check the trans fluid level first. To do this have the car running at operating temp check the level if low adjust to proper level and recheck. If thats not it I will help u trouble shoot it further. Sounds like a bad torque converter.

white smoke and high temp prestone goes in the cylinder burn come out white prestone goes down because our burning it and you got high temp you need to remove the head and change the head gasket and check the head for for warp or crank good luck pierre

could have faulty injectors flooding the system causing an overly rich condition. DO notice any black smoke coming from the back?

Remove the gas cap and re-install it making sure that you hear it click several times. What your evap leak could be is the gas cap allowing gas fumes to escape. All it takes is a .040 leak to turn on the engine light. If it persists you'll have to have the emission system smoke tested. What happens is the system is literally filled with smoke and the leak will be found by where the smoke comes from.
