Please help, smoke coming from exhaust!
Ok here's the deal, all of a sudden my car started going through coolant like crazy, and today I noticed lots of white smoke coming from my exhaust....shortly after, the engine over-heated, so I pulled over to let it cool down. My car was in the shop a few days ago and the mechanic noticed a very small oil leak, and thought it was from the rear main seal, which I bet any money is actually the infamous intake manifold leak.
Would the intake manifold cause the symptoms I have? I can only drive my car like 5 min before it overheats, that's how fast it is burning up the coolant!
PLEASE HELP ME

when my intake was bad i didnt blow smoke or loose antifreeze....and if it was a rear main sela i dont think that would happen either......u might have a blown head gasket.....not really sure but it would be good just to check

This is classic blown head gasket. It also could be a cracked head, but most likely head gasket. while the engine is idling check for bubbles in the radiator with pressure cap off. you should have a sweet smell from the exhaust. good luck
