Smoke from rear of engine (Video)

Hey guys,

Driving around downtown two days ago when all of a sudden smoke starting coming from underneath the hood. Pulled over and had it towed to CarMax. Today I found my 90 day warranty just happens to have expired, so I had to drive it to the dealer across the street. Car runs fine, no smoke now.

What should I do? Dealer is closed due to Holiday so I drove it home.

Really hard to tell from the video, any oil spots on the ground where you park? Possibly a slight oil leak onto the exhaust but that doesn’t explain why it when away.

No leaks when I left CarMax. Hopeful it's nothing serious.

If Carmax had been decent they would have honored the warranty a day late or at least looked at it.
