Wastegate Shaft Play

I’ve been trying to diagnose the 2885 boost pressure deviation code and cannot seem to find the problem. Tonight I took off the cat to see if it was plugged and it looked fine. However I did notice some play in the shaft for the wastegate. It seems to work fine and close properly but the shaft has some play where it passes through the case. Could this be the cause of my 2885 code? I’ve attached a video but I’m afraid it’s too large.

That could do it… That bushing where the shaft passes through should be tighter than that.
