At cold start there was a little rough idle and lots of white smoke it caught idle
and white smoke disappeared I just had a tune up a few days ago

A small amount of condensation (white smoke) on cold mornings is normal. A lot could be a leaking head gasket. If you see lots of white smoke after it is warmed up have a mechanic check it out. The rough start might mean you are due for a tuneup.
