Adorno and Heidegger shared deep critiques despite their bitter opposition.

Evidence

What was bound to appeal to Adorno in Habermas was his talent for writing (Adorno had repeatedly lamented the lack of this talent among research assistants at the Institute); that he had come to the fore through a resolute critique of Heidegger (Adorno’s own harsh criticisms of Heidegger first appeared in the 1960s); that he had the same critical attitude to many things as Adorno himself (not surprisingly, since Heidegger’s and Adorno’s thinking had a series of motifs in common, such as their critique of positivism and idealism, their critique of the general trend of Western thought as a whole, their critique of the idea of an autonomous philosophy, of the hypostatizing of the instinct for self-preservation and the priority of the subject). — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 571
