I have a 1997 VW Passat VR6 160K. Recently it started to fall out of gear into neutral at stop signs after giving it a little extra gas it would jump into gear, as if I was learning to drive a standard, with that problem still occuring 1week later it was having problems changing gears and would rev a lot in 1st gear before it started moving. A few days later while dealing with the same issues smoke started coming out of the tail pipe and hood after I stopped mostly from the right side. The smoke didn't seem to have much of a tint mostly gray/white. The car does not go into gear at all.

You need to check all fluid levels in the car..... If those are all ok, it sounds like at the minimum you have some internal transmission problems going on. With the other symptoms mentioned you may want to take it to a full service shop to get everything looked at.
