As stated whats the best oil to use in my 1.6 16v xsi as i plan on dropping the oil out and changing the filters soon. Sometimes at present the car is making a slight ticking (tappety) noise on cold morning start ups then fine once warm so im hoping a decent oil replacement will solve this.

You need to use Total Quartz 5W/30 Synthetic
You will need 3,0 Liters with filter changed.
