Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have white smoke coming from my tailpipe,
a clicking noise from the back of my car and
feels like it is going to stall at time. The

fed up and stressed over this, please help me
keep my sanity HAHA

The smoke can be due to oil in the exhaust. Check your engine oil level. If it’s overfilled it can cause white smoke.
