Description of the problem	Today's date is december 06, 2008. I started to smell a foul gas smell inside my cabin a few days ago. The smell has occurred since then. What seems to trigger the smell of gas is the cold start ups in temperature degrees of low 20's and below. The smell is extreme. It's enough to make sitting driving almost unbearable, my passengers, along with me get headaches. I am forced to open the windows in freezing weather to allow the gas smell to exit. The smell goes away after opening windows and/or 10 or more minutes of vehicle operation. I have only searched for help from the nasioc online community. It is a community of thousands of subaru owners who as well have reported hundred of cases of the same gas smell.
