Smelly Vanity Cold Water

[Winger27]

I am having a problem with my cold water in my vanity, it has a sewer smell. It is definitely only the cold water line at only this sink, all others (shower, kitchen sink, toilet) are good with no smell. I have pex lines throughout the house. I replaced the flex line that goes to the faucet because it was looped thinking that was the problem, it seems better but not completely gone. What else can I do? Thanks

You could sanitize the pipe path.

City water or well?

It is well water. The pex lines are all newer lines, all other sources have no smell. New water tank, no smell from hot water

Make sure you also get your smell when the lavatory drain stopper is stopping flow.

I have a shallow dug well, had the water tested and has good quality. I will take about a cup of water from the cold vanity side and walk away with it and it still smells. If it runs for about 15 sec. it clears up, but initial flow stinks like sewer

I suggest you sanitize while the weather is not too cold.
