Custom post type pagination issues - php

Question

Having trouble implementing the pagination for custom post type ('vehicle') in Genesis child theme, I'm using Genesis : 2.0.0 in wordpress 4.1.1
I've tried placing the following code in function.php
add_filter( 'genesis_prev_link_text', 'gt_review_prev_link_text' );
function gt_review_prev_link_text() {
$prevlink = '« Previous Reviews';
return $prevlink;
}
add_filter( 'genesis_next_link_text', 'gt_review_next_link_text' );
function gt_review_next_link_text() {
$nextlink = 'Next Reviews »';
return $nextlink;
}
i've tried the following too;
<?php genesis_posts_nav();?>
The code below works, but only as 'newer' and 'older' hyperlinks, i'm trying to achieve a numeric pagination.
<?php previous_posts_link( '« Newer' ); ?>
<?php next_posts_link( 'Older »', $vehicle->max_num_pages ); ?>
Here is my custom post type archive template.
<?php
/*
Template Name: Archive Vehicle(CAR)
*/
//* Force full width content
add_filter( 'genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout', '__genesis_return_full_width_content' );
//* Remove Post Info
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_post_info', 12 );
//* Remove Post Meta
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_entry_footer_markup_open', 5 );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_entry_footer_markup_close', 15 );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_post_meta' );
/** Code for custom loop */
remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );
add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'am_custom_loop' );
function am_custom_loop(){
$paged = 1;
if ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) { $paged = get_query_var( 'paged' ); }
if ( get_query_var( 'page' ) ) { $paged = get_query_var( 'page' ); }
$paged = intval( $paged );
$args = array('post_type' => 'vehicle', 'posts_per_page' => '3', 'paged'=> $paged, );
$vehicle = new WP_query($args);
$wp_query = $vehicle;
if ($vehicle -> have_posts() ){
?>
<div class="first arc">
<h2> View our latest used car collection from KH cars Birmingham</h2>
<p>Need a car? Look no further, browse through our vast selection of used cars on site based in Birmingham. </p>

<?php
while ($vehicle -> have_posts() ){
$vehicle -> the_post();

genesis();
Any Help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance

First i Removed $wp_query = $vehicle; and then used the code below from wordpress codex and voila it works.
<?php
$big = 999999999; // need an unlikely integer
echo paginate_links( array(
'base' => str_replace( $big, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $big ) ) ),
'format' => '?paged=%#%',
'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
'total' => $vehicle->max_num_pages
) );
?>
