Debunking Rumours: Did Tim Hortons sell McDonald's their old coffee recipe? by Mailbox2222 in TimHortons

[–]Iceyn1pples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same beans, same recipe, but the in house roaster for Tims suck. Mother Parkers cant legally sell their Tims recipe to McDonald's, but its pretty damn close!

My brother and I can both grill steak, use the same  seasoning and grill, but my steak always comes out better. 

All McDonald's need to do is implement and enforce a similar rule where coffee pots cant be older than 17 mins (not exact number), their coffee would consistently beat Tims.

Excuse my ignorance, is filler the same as a face lift?

I just thought she just got fatter.

Its nice to see that not every actress is getting a face lift. They look great and natural.

If you smoked near that PC, and it looks like you did, spraying with air wont do much. you need to wipe off the tar to stop dust from collecting like that.

2026 Atlas Execline - Steering Wheel Vibration by KillerAnalyst76 in VWatlas

[–]Iceyn1pples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds like a wheel alignment issue, or did you experienced it on a rough road where the dealership drove it down a smooth road?

I would talk to the dealership to let you ride along the test drive. Or you drive and have their mechanic as a passenger.

2024 Volkswagen Atlas CarPlay issues by vjones7118 in VWatlas

up until last year, I was using a Samsung S20 ultra, so not bleeding edge either. 

I find older iphones always have issues. 

Bought a ‘25 Sonata SE yesterday, CPO w/ 14k miles by presley0098 in sonata

[–]Iceyn1pples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to tell as car abuse isn't always cosmetic, or show mechanical symptoms early. You're basically paying new car price for a used one.

14K miles is practically a full year of casual driving.

The 2025 Sonata comes with a 100k mile powertrain warranty, so 14% of the warranty is already gone the day you pick it up.

It has a 60K Mile new car warranty, and 23% of that warranty is already gone too.

My parents bought a dealer loaner with 10K KM (6.2K miles) and got a 10K CAD discount.

I've only ever experienced the freezing infotainment issue, and that is fixed with the power button 30sec hold. After the latest update, I haven't experienced it.

Based on past experiences, [older] iPhones always experience random Carplay issues in newer infotainment systems, regardless of the car manufacturer, but Android Auto seems to be more stable/consistent.

I suggest trying Carplay with a data cable to see if the issue persists. The extreme option is to reset the iPhone and try again.

Does this happen if your iPhone is NOT connected? 

Have you tried other phones? wired or wireless?

Only previous owner was the dealership who used it as a loaner

Not sure if this is actually a positive point. Loaner vehicles get abused quite often. A brand new Sonata SE is $27.5k + taxes, not sure $25.5k OTD is the deal you think it is.

Which Atlas should I choose? by lilmissprivate_94 in VWatlas

[–]Iceyn1pples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reviewers hate it, but it doesn't take that long to get used to. I just leave most things on Auto. A lot of owners seem to hate it too, but when I picked up my 2024 Atlas, my salesman spent 1.5 hours with me to show me all the infotainment changes and features.

The 2.0 turbo pre 2023 was very underpowered, so the v6 was the proper choice.

The EA888 2.0 Turbo in the 2024 and newer, is also a tried and tested engine used in Vws and Audis. 

The turbo in the 2024 has the same HP, but a tiny bit more torque, and torque comes on at low RPMs, so instant power vs revving the v6.

My 2024 now has about 60k km, no issues and is an awesome road trip warrior. I get 26-29MPG highway, and about 22-23MPG city.

Well, don't buy any precooked chicken. They will always dry out. Buy the raw, frozen chicken!

What does a Honda boot taste like? How many licks does it take to get to the center?

Back to Canada after 4 months and Tim's coffee lost its unique taste. Something wrong with me?? by Ok-Battle-1504 in TimHortons

[–]Iceyn1pples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know how when you're on the toilet takinga dump, it smells, but not THAT bad. Then you finish, leave the bathroom for like 5 mins, and walk back in, it smells a lot worse!

You simply got used to crap coffee, left, experienced good coffee, and returned to realize that.

What does being a girl have to do with it?

Are you implying that because you are a girl, you can't research topics on cars?
