Thanks for your input.  It's a groove roughly 3.2 mm wide and I'm going in with a 3.0 mm grooving tool.  Enabling or disabling finishing passes didn't seem to do anything at all - the tool path remained unchanged and no finish pass was performed either way.  The only way it seemed to make a difference was to change the stepover to something silly like 0.05 mm but that just gave me a large number of cuts I didn't really want.  Ideally I'd have it plunge in the middle then finishing both edges and clearing the bottom.

 

I tried using a 2.0 mm insert in fusion and playing about with stepover etc and it still seems to happen although it actually allows for a finish pass which is a plus.

 

I've attached the f3d file for reference.
