I'm not sure about the mobil 1 extended life specifically, but i know most of those "long-lasting" oils actually just put more additives in it which actually might get into toher parts (like your cats). Also, the use of these oils voids some warranties.

I use Mobil1 and change it every 5,000 miles. I don't see a reason to chance it for 15,000.
