White smoke comes when start the car but no coolant leak .

whenever I start my car there is a white smoke coming from the exhust in the morning but no coolant leak , no hard start up issue s... but yet very recenty I replaced my coolant bottle and my dealer broke the radiator nipple and they fixed it and after replacing a bottle whenever I start the car my car smells different and I feel that coolant is leaking in a small amount as I keep track n it. if it s leaking from the nipple is it a problem

Steam at start up when cold is completely normal. If coolant is leaking from the nipple you should see a drop in coolant level. But I don't know why you let them repair it, they should have replaced the whole radiator.

perfect, break it back off, overheat your engine and kill it. Then bring it to the dealer and blame them on the improperly repaired nipple.

Joking of course.

sir , we dont have any specific dealers to maintain our cars in our country and I took to the only place that make rx8 repairs , they even charged me for the radiator repair what they broke, even though we get rip off from that place , we have to keep going there for any kind of repair .but verry recently we found out a new place that is very reasonable and they know the subject rotary. . so looking foward to visit them , so sir I would not have to worry at all regarding the matter sir ?
