Default Smoke From Exhaust
This morning I was driving behind my wife in her '99 LX-V6 and I noticed as we were stopped at an intersection some smoke wisping out from the left (only) tailpipe. Is this an indication of the muffler giving out, or something more substantial?

That'd be my best guess...

Yup, sounds like you are burning some oil.
