Took delivery of my 400 mile used emira.
Noticed the driver side rear disc has what appears to be a scoring line which is in line with the parking brake. Other discs seem okay. No issues with braking.
Anyone else with this issue? I can’t feel an obvious line on the disc when I run my finger over it.

Mine had something like this happen on my front drivers side too, but it was that the pad wasn't initially wearing down that line. Over time it went away as the pad wore down more (within the first few hundred miles).

I see. Maybe it's because I'm only under 500 miles right now. Hopefully it goes away over time. Thanks!
 
I think Tomwa is right in that it something like a rock, or metal particle seems to have gotten wedged between one of the 2 brake pads and the disc. I suggest taking both pads out and checking for anything stuck in the pads' section of the scoring perimeter. I haven't taken out the small emergency brake pad, but having already replaced the other 4 large OEM brakes pads, I can attest that the Emira's calipers are fairly easy to work with, so I would imagine the same goes for that one.
