it turns milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate
but when excess of co2 is passed it turns into a precipitate of calcium carbonate and water remains colourless

Explanation :
When the excess carbon dioxide gas is passed through the lime water, it turns milky first due to the formation of the calcium carbonate as a precipitate which is insoluble in water and then become colorless due to the formation of calcium bicarbonate.
The balanced chemical reaction will be,
On passing excess of carbon dioxide gas, the colorless calcium bicarbonate is formed.
The balanced reaction will be,
