We got some freezing rain last night and my G was completely coated in ice. By this morning it had melted but when I tried to turn on my car it wouldn't turn over so I kept trying and giving it a little gas to get it going. I eventually got it to turn on but it turned right off. i tried again and got it to start but then I noticed white smoke billowing out and a distinct burning smell. It is quite clear that I'm not seeing white smoke simply because it's cold but I'm wondering what the problem is. I've read that I may have antifreeze in my oil but the oil doesn't look as though it's contaminated and I can't imagine I blew a gasket trying to turn on the car but what do I know.

 

WHY the repost on the very same subject? Question was posted on the coupe section this morning, did you lose it?

white smoke with a sweet burning smell usually means a blown head gasket at minimum, cracked block as worst case.

all you need is a coolant flush
