I have a '04 3.8L and I just changed the transmission fluid and filter. It was a messy process, however, and I managed to spill some oil on different parts of the undercarriage. Now, I'm noticing a little bit (not a lot) of light-colored smoke coming from beneath the car. Would that just be the spilled oil burning off?

Run it through a carwash that sprays the under carriage. See what happens. Then look for leaks underneath on concrete, ect..

Most likely it is just the spilt fluid burning off. Like Robb said see if you can wash it off and if it will stop smoking after that.

Thanks, people. I ran it through the car wash and I'm noticing less and less of the smoke so I'm thinking that it must have been the spilled oil.
