Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Mostly! The fuel flow with the fuel pump on, will start to move up slowly starting at about 6% load. If you check the “system” page, you’ll see that actual fuel flow is very low up until that point, so I’m not surprised the analog gauge doesn’t show much movement.
In the actual DA40 NG checklists, there isn’t even a requirement to check fuel flow at any point. Just fuel temperature (which I don’t think is modelled). There is also supposed to be a “fuel pressure low” enunciator which isn’t modelled I believe since it never comes on if you shut off the fuel and let it run dry. The emergency procedure never has you check “fuel flow” if you get that light IRL.
The other gauges you mentioned are not working as they should, per your finding.

• I’ve got some of the C/L’s and MFD if it really matters.
