Inductor cooling systems and methods are disclosed. A vehicle inductor cooling system, may include an inductor assembly, a flange extending around a periphery of the inductor assembly, an inductor cover having a sealing surface forming a seal with the flange, a cavity defined by the inductor cover and the inductor assembly, and a first opening defined in the inductor cover configured to provide coolant to the cavity. The flange may include a first recess defined therein that communicates with the first opening and is configured to receive coolant through the first opening and provide it to the cavity. A portion of the cover including the first opening may be configured to form a seal with a coolant inlet of a vehicle transmission case such that coolant is configured to flow through the coolant inlet, through the first opening, into the first recess, and into the cavity.
