hey my car is smoking but my engine temperature is still at normal and I asked a mechanic what it was and he said he wasnt sure that he will have to put it in the shope to see what it is but then he wants to charge just to see what it is, or the problem. i now its something to do with my radiator cause i smell radiator fluid.
