Last night I drove the car (got it on Friday) for the first time at night, and got very annoyed that dozens of cars flashed their lights at me.

I first thought it was because they loved the car

But no

Apparently the lights on my car are blinding those coming from the opposite direction. And even some cars I passed flashed their lights at me.

And the adaptive headlights do not have a manual height control button (it's all supposed to be automatic).

Any one else having this problem ?

FYI, I have the Xenon adaptive headlights, not the LED's...
Are You sure you pressed the automatic lights on from left bottom. It doesn't dip if you have high beams. In automatic mode it only puts high beam when necessary, not in city feg. Just checking. Auto Bild tested all led lights and they needed to calibrate all lights to get a comparable result, so sometimes automatic lights need to be checked also.
