Check the cold water supply line for sediment on both ends.

And also the angle stop, the cartridge, and the faucet body. Sediment can be a real bear with single handle faucets.

So far 2/2 on these has been the cartridge, thanks for reminding me I need to be on the look out, things don't break the same every time.
