White Smoke from Exhaust Worse in Park at 2,000 rpm 200 1988

Agreed. Best case scenario is it is simply excessive moisture burning off. My Passat wagon does that but not consistently.

Or it could be the beginning of a head gasket leak. The red block engines are known for that at high mileage. I was lucky with my 90 240. Drove it over 300k without doing a head gasket or any engine work for that matter....:)

Will I buy another Volvo??? We'll see....
