smoke

bought a 2015 nissan pathfinder, 74k miles automatic 4wd.  No smoke when driving, but when I turn it off then back on usually 20 minutes later. I get grayish, whitish with a tint of blue. It goes away after 10-15 seconds. I've watched your videos and I'm going to change PCV valve. What else could I do?

You're either burning oil or (more likely) coolant. I'd start monitoring the oil level and coolant catch tank level. If it's coolant, you would then get a head gasket test kit and see if that's the problem. Scotty has a video on that,  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0U8Iyf0kk4

it's usually from worn valve stem seals
