Check for vacuum leaks or a bad fuel pressure regulator. The FPR is in the front of the fuel rail and has a vacuum hose going to it. Pull the hose and see if it smells like gas or has gas coming out of the FPR hole. If so then your car is running very rich and that may be the fuel smell you have and very bad idling when the engine is warmed up. Good Luck!

Sincerely,
