blue smoke means you are burning oil. I think you are having the same problem I am having. take out 1 spark plug and see if there is oil on it. if so, you will need to either change out the head gasket or spark plug seal. I need to do that too

spark plug seal? hmm that could be an idea to. I think im also burning anti freeze ever so slightly. 2 weeks ago the oil change placed filled the overflow tank to full now its at min, SUCKS!!!

Just curious, but would the extended emission warranty cover that? I read over it didnt see gaskets or seals!

Worn out spark plung seal won't cause you blue smoke. It's the head gasket leak. Also if you have spark plugs drenched in oil, you got bad cam shaft holder seals.
