Puff of smoke
New to everything here. I've noticed that occasionally when I start up my R58 I get a puff of smoke. It's not all the time though. Would a catch can help with this? Is this anything to be concerned over? Thanks for the newb help.

I am not in any shape or form a technical guy, mine did the same and then as I waited at traffic light and when car idele for a bit,the problem with mine was bad valve seals, although I do have a Catch can now I don't think that will solve your problem it will help with Carbon build up. it's eather bad valve seals that allows the oil to get to the top or bad pcv.

Probably find something googling. Essentially you remove the intake manifold, spark plugs, turn the engine by hand closing the valves in a port and cleaning the port with the closed valves and repeat for each port until clean. It's a weekend job.
