Car gives white smoke when started

Hi,

My car gives white smoke when it is started after some time. like after 4-5 hours and this smoke disappears after driving 1-2 kms. Also there are some droplets in tail pipe.

Not sure about this but this . problem stated when i changed engine oil.

i changed Engine oil and from very next day it starts giving white smoke. Also oil drops when i park car after this. previously it was fine and it does not smoke.

Mechanic told me that engine valves seals are weak and need to be changed.

Previously i thought that oil is of low quality. Now i changed engine oil again after 3500 kms and this problem is not finished. i used Shell Yellow both times.

i want to know is this harmful or just oil will finish soon ?? any experienced comment.

if your valve seals are weak get the problem addressed now or it can lead to alot more issues.

i used shell yellow in my vitz and it was fine. just make sure you buy the real stuff as there is ALOT of 2 number oil available in pk.
