I smell gas or oil in the inside of the car.

If it is oil, check for leaks at the valve cover gaskets, intake gasket, oil pan, and timing chain cover. Also, is the engine wet with oil?

If it is gas, check for leaks at the fuel rail, injectors and fuel line. NOTE: Any fuel leak is potentially dangerous.

Let me know what you find, and try to determine if it is fuel or oil.
