The wastegate assembly further includes a spindle having a head defining an opening for receiving the valve shaft. The wastegate assembly further includes a washer coupled to the valve shaft and spaced from the spindle such that the spindle is disposed between the valve body and the washer. The spindle head or the washer includes a raised lip extending towards the other of the spindle head or the washer, with the other of the spindle head or the washer defining a notch configured to at least partially receive the raised lip and configured to cooperate with the raised lip to shield the biasing member from exhaust gas and high temperatures.
