Loud engine idling, chugging noise and smoke off the exhaust.

How are you fellas doing? Just bought my 04' I35. The car is beautiful and runs great, but it has a loud idling noise when the car is sitting. It almost sounds like a chugging noise that cheap ford's make.Plus, there is what looks like smoke coming out of the exhaust. I really can't tell if it is smoke or not, because of the colder weather we are having. All I know is - other cars are not smoking as much as mine does.

I'd appreciate any help you guys can offer. Thanks.

p.s I bought extra warranty by infiniti, the 36k miles/ 3 year, bumper to bumper coverage. Does any know if I am covered for the repair job on my car?

I would take it to the dealer and have them diagnose it. Once they figure out what it is, have them check to see if it is covered by your extended warranty.
