Grammar is a noun and grammatical is an adjective so it should be Grammatical error because it is describing what kind of error it is and error is a noun...a noun does not describe another noun.

It's actually acceptable. Grammar errors or grammar mistakes still makes sense. You have a lot of punctuation errors in your sentences, though.

Yes it can: 'winter sports', 'milk product', 'dog lover', etc. Your post is wrong and you should familiarize yourself with English linguistics before correcting others who are giving advice. The way he wrote the sentence is preferable because it has parallel structure.

OP you should just write the statement here unless it has personal information in which case you can just censor it anyway.
