Default Blue smoke when taking off from park.

Just had the recent updates done to the CP on Saturday and now there is blue smoke coming-out upon take-off. What could be causing this all of a sudden?

From 6:30am to 8:00am the truck would blow blue smoke from stop and go driving. Let the truck sit for about 30 mins and now the blue smoke has gone away. During the time also, Cleaning Exhaust was on constantly. I'm going to see what it does the rest of the day.

I would think that all the updates have been done but ya never know. Truck seems to running better today but I'm having the driver give me updates on the "cleaning exhaust," how long it stays on and how frequent.

I had the dealer pull everything that has been done to the truck in the past year and I noticed one of the tech notes didn't have the previous "flashing" of the computer documented. Why is that important you may ask, well I'm looking into my options with this vehicle at this point.
