ok i went on a trip for about 2weeks and left my mx3 in the garage. when i got back the car started differently. every time i start the car, a massive amount of smoke comes out of my exhaust for about 2-5 minutes.
Smoke only comes out of the engine when the car has not been driven for about 7 hours, anytime in between; nothing happens.
This has been going on ever since the summer of august and im wondering if anyone might know what the problem may be.

seals and are shot. when sitting over time the valve seals will get brittle, and not spongy like they should, be letting oil go into the combutstion chamber. I cannot be exact on this prediction, but sounds likely...
