I can't find a plunger to fit the odd shaped bowl of a Kohler toilet. Do you know where to find one or what it would be called?
So there is pressure when you push, and suction when you pull. Plungers are more effective when pushing water instead of air because water doesn't compress. ... Thrusting the plunger moves column of water like it was a solid piston and applies the entire force of the thrust against the clog.

Kohler is correct. The most likely cause of this problem is an obstruction in the common vent stack that both toilets share. When you flush the old toilet it need more air to flush and will get it from the easiest source (your new water saver toilet). First adjust the float level in the old toilet so it won't use as much water or just stick a brick in the tank to take up space.Second, run a snake down the vent stack from the roof to check for obstructions. Birds will sometimes nest in there.

low water in the bowl is only caused by the float being to high! the gurgles is Usually because of air coming back up through the pipe, check your vent pipe that come out the roof. this will help the draining.

That is a tricky one. Tighten the tabs, twist into place, then tighten a bit more. They are a pain in the a$$, but with patience you will get it done. Good luck
SOURCE: How do I replace the toilet seat on a Kohler
I repaied one of these laast week and it had the Plastic nuts in between the webbing on the seat where the lid connects I believe You remove the plastic cap with a knife and use a flat tip screw driver to remove the screws and replace the seat.
You will need to check the drainage fitting these toilets are draining into. If it is a cross tee fitting without a baffle you are getting throw over across the fitting and it will not stop. The only fix for this is to replace the fitting in your drainage system. In Illinois it is a code violation to put this type of fitting in that application.
When these power flush toilets come out it made this problem worse. In short there is no fix for this problem other than redoing the drainage system.
