 You can go to immigration and they will copy your visa and 90 day due date. Give you a copy and tell you to come in with it if your passport isn't done. That is what I did.

Who to use for what? You use the UK government for renewing your passport. You should do that first or any extension you get from immigration will only last until your passport expiration date.
