White smoke is water burning other wise known as steam. this can surgest water is getting into the cylinders. this can be down to a faulty cylinder head gasket. most diesels will use about 1litre of oil per 1000 miles. are you sre the smoke is white and not got a tint of blue to it. if it has a tint of blue that would mean the engine s burning oil and could be down to faulty oil seals
