white smoke can be one of two things,

1, when petrol burns water is produced as a waste product, so it could just be steam

2, your burning coolant, just keep an eye on your levels.

how much is a bit higher? these engines are bad for burning oil and the garage might just have put in a little extra to cover anything thats burnt

check with an oil qualuty and colour to prevent emulsion formation in cacse of mixing with coolant !!!
