2005 Renault Megane Manual 70000 miles

my car hasn't been serviced or maintained in almost 2 years .... the timing belt needs to be changed, full serivce and oil change needed, brakes etc.

is it ok to go to an independant mechanic or do you need to go to a renault dealers to ensure to car computer doesn't keep flashing warning or service lights on the dash. do you have to go someone with a renault diagnostic scanner??

Some mechanics have told me that they do not like carrying out work on renaults due to electrical problems that can happen

some renault models are prone to electrical faults .. most good independant garages will be able to diagnose and do the work on your car
