Depends on which 1.6 Diesel you're talking about, the TD (Turbo) or NA (naturally aspirated/non-turbo)?
The 1.6 TD has 68 HP and 98 ft lbs torque
The 1.6 NA has 52 HP and 71 ft lbs torque
If its a Diesel, 3.8 litres with new filter.
Go to your local battery supplier with Make/ model /year & engine size
Use your choice of brand ;5W30 would be a good choice of weight.
