Where are you located? It seems you're describing the European-specifaction function that allows you to drive on the opposite side of the road without dazzling oncoming drivers.
So, which model of car do you have and which side of the road do you drive on? It sounds like you have a car designed for driving on the left-hand side of the road. In that case, then the "drive on right" option in MMI will reduce the light output because the cut-off will now be completely straight (no light band to light up road signs).
Or, you have an issue with the lights. Since you have a 2012 model, surely it's under warranty and you can take it in to a dealer for inspection? If they're far away, at least give them a call to ask their advice.
Good luck.

Okay then. First thing is to leave the light option in the menu set for the right. The problem at this point is probably that the lights are not aimed properly. Their might be a procedure to set this with a screwdriver, but you'd be guessing as to the correct level. I recommend that you take it to the dealer or a good mechanic for adjustment.
