I bought my first 914 today and know nothing about them. To check my mechanical abilities go to:

1.Battery tray and tray support gone, right front corner of engine down a little, some metal corroded away from right front area of area around engine, excessive toe-in and camber on right rear wheel. What's the fix?
2. No left seat adjuster. Is there supposed to be one?
3. With engine warmed up good the oil light comes on below 1000 RPM. Engine is full of good clean oil, don't know brand or type. No knock at idle or anywhere up to 3500 RPM. Oil pump? Bearings? Some 914 Quirk?
4. Sloppy gearshift lever. Bushings? Quirk?
The rest of the car seems to be in pretty good shape.
