Abstract
An air flap for an air flap assembly for a vehicle front is provided. The air flap has a front face and a lateral face having a slotted guide system. The air flap blocks an air inlet in the vehicle front through the front face in a closed position and opens the air inlet in an open position. The air flap is rotatable from the closed position into the open position by a rotary movement about an axis of rotation by way of a driver of an actuator, which driver can be guided in the slotted guide system. The slotted guide system located on the lateral face of the air flap has a tapered portion, so that the slotted guide system and the driver have substantially no play in relation to one another in the region of the tapered portion.
