03 protege lx at- my engine seems to be "steaming?" smoky after i drive it i have oil and anti freeze and the temp meter in the car does not indicate any sort of over heating. What could it be? Thanks

maybe you have a small crack in one of the rad hoses

does it smell like antifreeze when you drive? How's your coolant level after driving?

the steam/ smoke seems 2 be coming from the bak of the engine not the front towards the radiator. and it will get kinda hot n steamy f i just turn it on for a few mins n turn it back off. but my collant level is perfect? and my oil is all there? i just got my alternator and water pump done also could that have to do something with it?

Exhaust leak? Oil leak that's burning off from the hot motor? Oil dripping onto the hot exhaust pipe?

something hitting the exhaust and melting? what does it smell like? is it really cold out?
