White smoke is coolant getting into the engine. Sign of blow gasket, damage cylinder head, or even a cracked block.

Could be a blown head gasket between two cylinders and the cooling system. Have a compression test performed. A good auto shop should be able to put the engine on a diagnostic test set and give you good information. If the Toyota people can't identify the problem find another shop. I doubt they put your car on any kind of diagnostic set.

white smoke would mean your leaking oil into cylinders causing you to have white smoke that probably means blown gasket
