Default Vibration when idling

I purchased a 07 lexus gs 350 awd with 159000 miles on it. The buyer rarely drove it and gave me all service and maintenance records. When I bought it he told me about the vibration and I attributed it to build up in fuel injection and build up in engine. I put Lucas fuel treatment in and got on highway for 15 minutes. It subsided but it came back Slightly when I parked for a hour. Do anyone has any answers concerning this. Thanks

i'd be thinking about engine mounts. The feeling that it subsided a little bit was probably your imagination after putting the magic potion into the fuel system.
