White Smoke? Toxic Smell? Sign In

I just bought a used Infiniti G35 sedan, and when driving it and looking at it everything seemed good but after driving a few hundred miles I realize s small bit of white smoke comes out my exhaust and sometimes black when I really gun it and my rpms are towards the top end. Also, right when I start my car and while I'm idling or sometimes when I'm driving it smells like exhaust in my car, I either have to have all windows open or all windows closed. There's no bubbling in the radiator but my father said there was a little when I gave it some gas. Does this sound like a very serious problem? Head gasket?

Probably more than just a head gasket now. Bubbling noticed and other observations are pretty damning.


Near red-lining it was a brilliant idea for an engine in distress or perhaps has put it out of its misery?

Is this a private sale? If you got this at a car lot, you might want to give them a call.
