Insure you are using motor oil rated for your engine, regular automotive oil is not good enough for a diesel engine. White smoke in cold weather from a diesel engine indicates unburned fuel due to cold combustion chamber temperature. To check for a coolant leak, remove the radiator cap and inspect for bubbles rising, since a diesel engine has little/no vacumn, it can't suck in coolant, and the high compression will blow back into the coolant system if there's a leak. Dave is right about returning to the selling dealer with your concerns. Be sure to document all happenings and conversations to protect your rights even if the warranty expires prior to fixing the problem.
