Could be lean up top? White smoke would be from coolant/water if not though.

Keep an eye on the coolant level for a few days,if it goes down you will probably need a head gasket.

If the coolant stays good there might be no need to worry.

If you are worried about a blown head gasket. Check the oil as well, if coolant/water are getting mixed into it, it will be a milky brownish color. Have you sat at idle and revved it up and seen smoke? Or will it only happen in 2nd gear? How much smoke are we talking as well? Little puffs or are you fogging for mosquitos?
