Before 
I was enjoying the movement of adaptive xenon headlights... but ..
After a malfunction in adaptive headlights system
my advisor told me that they changed the whole adaptive system & they
re-aligned the adaptive headlights.
I think they did not do the alignment accurately, Thus ??
Now
I don't see clearly the movement of adaptive headlight & don't feel the taste that I felt when adaptive sys. was ok. Also, I think there is no Synchronous between both right & left adaptive lights.. which mean each one is working on its own.. correct me if I am wrong..
wana knonw your opinion and experience

Er.. you need to switch to auto on the headlight switch for it to work.

This may sound silly, but I didn't realise headlights had to be on the auto setting for adaptive to work. I assumed it worked whenever they were on regardless of the setting.
